| /** |
| * A launch configuration tab group is used to edit/view attributes |
| * of a specific type of launch configuration. Launch |
| * configurations are presented in a dialog, with a tab folder. |
| * Each tab manipulates one or more attributes of a launch |
| * configuration. The tab group controls which tabs are |
| * displayed for a specific type of launch configuration, |
| * and provides a mechanism for overriding configuration |
| * initialization performed by tabs. |
| * <p> |
| * A tab group has the following lifecycle methods: |
| * <ul> |
| * <li><code>createTabs(ILaunchConfigurationDialog, String)</code> - |
| * this is the first method called on a tab group after it is instantiated.</li> |
| * <li><code>initializeFrom(ILaunchConfiguration)</code> - called when a |
| * launch configuration is selected to be displayed.</li> |
| * <li><code>performApply(ILaunchConfigurationWorkingCopy)</code> - called when |
| * a tab group's values are to be written to a launch configuration.</li> |
| * <li><code>dispose()</code> - the last method called on a tab group, when it is |
| * to perform any required cleanup. Note that a tab can be disposed before its control |
| * has been created.</li> |
| * </ul> |
| * The method <code>setDefaults(ILaunchConfigurationWorkingCopy)</code> |
| * can be called before a tab's controls are created. |
| * </p> |
| * <p> |
| * The launch tab framework was originially designed to handle inter tab |
| * communication by applying attributes from the active tab to a launch configuration |
| * being edited, when a tab is exited, and by initializing a tab when activated. |
| * In 3.0, the addition of the methods <code>activated</code> and <code>deactivated</code> |
| * allow tabs to determine the appropriate course of action. The default implementation |
| * in <code>AbstractLaunchConfigurationTab</code> is to call the old methods |
| * (<code>initializeFrom</code> and <code>performApply</code>). Tabs should overeride |
| * the new methods as required. |
| * </p> |
| * <p> |
| * A launch configuration group extension is defined in <code>plugin.xml</code>. |
| * Following is an example definition of a launch configuration |
| * group extension. |
| * <pre> |
| * <extension point="org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchConfigurationTabGroups"> |
| * <launchConfigurationTabGroup |
| * id="com.example.ExampleTabGroup" |
| * type="com.example.ExampleLaunchConfigurationTypeIdentifier" |
| * class="com.example.ExampleLaunchConfigurationTabGroupClass"> |
| * </launchConfigurationTabGroup> |
| * </extension> |
| * </pre> |
| * The attributes are specified as follows: |
| * <ul> |
| * <li><code>id</code> specifies a unique identifier for this launch configuration |
| * tab group.</li> |
| * <li><code>type</code> specifies launch configuration type that this tab |
| * group is applicable to (corresponds to the id of a launch configuration type |
| * extension).</li> |
| * <li><code>class</code> specifies a fully qualified name of a Java class |
| * that implements <code>ILaunchConfigurationTabGroup</code>.</li> |
| * </ul> |
| * </p> |
| * <p> |
| * This interface is intended to be implemented by clients. |
| * </p> |
