Hi,

The e4 tools project offers wrapper classes which allow to wrap POJOs and
perform DI on them. The wrapper classes provide the old API, e.g. one of
them extend ViewPart. This allows to use the new programming model for
plug-in development. Tom Schindl did the the development.

Is it an option to move the e4 wrapper classes to platform for Eclipse 4.3?
This way people could easily start using the new programming model via the
wrapper classes.

I think as long as the wrapper classes remain in the e4 tools project their
reach is relatively limited.

IMHO offering the wrapper classes is a good start for a migration story for
the Eclipse plug-in developers. Also the wrapper classes from Tom are
relatively small.

Best regards, Lars
