Hi, the Eclipse eTrice project filed a bug [1] against the Text component of the Platform. We would like to use the org.eclipse.jface.text.rules.RuleBasedScanner in a headless application. The RuleBasedScanner and related classes aren't depending on UI stuff, which is fine. However, the org.eclipse.jface.text bundle is depending on SWT. So we asked for a split into UI dependent and UI independent parts into separate bundles.
Since [1] didn't receive an answer within 3 month and I also assume that it's not likely that this part would be split off and moved to a separate bundle, my question is: Is it allowed that the eTrice project forks the needed classes unchanged into its own code base? Of course this would require to place them inside a new bundle, e.g. org.eclipse.jface.text.rules, to avoid conflicts. Thanks, Henrik [1] https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=558350 _______________________________________________ cross-project-issues-dev mailing list cross-project-issues-dev@eclipse.org To unsubscribe from this list, visit https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-project-issues-dev
