[dsdp-tm-dev] Re: webservice-based filesystem for RSE

[Christian Hohmann <c.hohmann@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Martin,

thanks a lot for your helpfull response. I'll try the TCF version. So 
far, I created the classes you suggested.
I could only find the extension "org.eclipse.rse.core.systemTypes", but 
it looks to me as it is the right one.

 * Write an ISubSystem class that derives from FileServiceSubsystem

I saw that FileServiceSubsystem is a final Class - so I followed the 
FileserviceSubsystem class and  created the following:
public class MySubSystem extends RemoteFileSubSystem implements 
IFileServiceSubSystem{...}

Which extensionPoint do I have to implement to see my system in the"New 
Connection" screen?
Contributing under EPL is no problem, but first I have to get it running.

Thanks again
Christian
