Hi All, Recently I tried porting a lot of RCP 3.x tutorial material to the Eclipse 4 Application Platform. I wanted to use "native" e4 only (and nothing from the compatibility layer). Currently I am having some issues and need some help.
1) Is it possible to provide a splash screen WITH progress bar? Doing it with the same mechanism that works in 3.x doesn't work in "native" e4 apps. I know how to do it manually, like it's described at http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/328812/, but are there any plans to support this out of the box? 2) Are there any plans to put standard commands like "Save" or "About" into the native e4 workbench layer? Right now everything is in org.eclipse.ui.workbench 3) What about the standard icon sets? Right now everything is in org.eclipse.ui with dependency to org.eclipse.ui.workbench I am asking because in the future I would like to provide full featured Eclipse 4 Application Platform based applications without using and deploying the "old" 3.x bundles.
