Hi,

just wanted to ask before I open a Bug-Report if this problem has been
recognized by anybody else.
I work with eclipse jee-version (no matter if 3.3 or 3.4, is in both the
same), and I develop RCP Apps at the same time.
If you create a simple RCP-App, and then try to create an extension, say
for org.eclipse.ui.views, and then you try to create a view extension, you
will see that the xml-descriptionfiles for the extension-points are not
there which resolves to a "generic" proposal instead of the valid
extension-points.

Did you also see this problem?

The Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers is not intended for Plug-in
development. As the name suggests, it is intended for Java EE
developers. The reason we created this package was to provide as concise
and environment as possible for that target audience.

In addition to the missing extension-point schemas, you'll probably also
notice that there's no source code. In fact, I'm a little concerned that
it includes any part of the PDE.

If you want to develop plugins, you should use the Eclipse for
RCP/Plug-in Developers. You could also add the source code plug-ins to
your Java EE version; I'm pretty sure that you can do this through the
Europa and Ganymede update sites.

So, no, I don't see this a problem. However, if you do, you should
report the bug so that it can be discussed.
