Hy guys,
thanks for the positive feedback!
@Joseph: Thats exactly one of the things I was thinking about :) The main problem I see currently, is that the code generating the Tab is deep down in every concrete Element class extending AbstractComponentEditor (#doGetEdit). So we would in some way have to either lift this up to provide the extension for every class, or add the call to the EP to any concrete Element class ---> (e4 guys please correct me!!!)
So this would be the major refactoring at the moment I guess.
@Jonas: I really like ECP and your talk on EclipseCon :) But as you say, it would require a big effort, which I won't be able to come up with. Do you see the possibility of a combined, or two-step approach? That is for a first step we refactor to support the extension, and then these resp. extension could support ECP? So one could e.g. event move the currently available Default and Support to ECP if one wanted ... or do I get this wrong?
cheers, marco
