[dsdp-mtj-dev] Extension point for defining devices

[Danail Nachev <d.nachev@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi guys,

First, I want to say that the work you are doing with MTJ has been long
awaited and MTJ will nicely complement the existing Eclipse tools
covering large portion of the software development.

So, straight to the point:

I couldn't find a way for a plugin to define new devices. There is a way
to define importer, which can be used to detect new types of SDKs and
there is an API, which can be called to add new devices to the registry,
but there is no way for a plugin to state:

I'm a SDK for this and this device.

If a plugin can declaratively specify new devices:

* p2 can be used for Java ME SDK installation/update
* a vendor-specific IDE/extension can easily define the supported
devices (w/o complex code)

What do you think?

BR,
