This is to open a conversation on how to extend the E4 environment. I've opened a Bugzilla to track the input:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=278631 Here's the opening text for the bug: We currently have two ways we're working with e4; simple E4 apps (photo and contacts) and the compatibility layer. The first contains no extension mechanism (aside from editing the XMI file). This is correct in the philosophy of 'do simple things simply'. The other (by definition) will recognize and manage -all- the existing eclipse UI/IDE extension points. This defect is to gather up information on how to provide a native extension mechanism for E4 and what extensions should it handle: Which existing extension points should e4 support ? Which new extension points should it introduce ? How should extensions in e4 be managed ? Anyone is invited to add themselves to the defect and post their input...the more the merrier (and the better our chances of getting it right) Eric
