| <p class="ueberschrift">What Is The Common Component?</p> |
| <p>Actually, its three components – wst.common, jst.common, |
| wst.command</p> |
| <p><em>"The common components contain plugins that provide generic |
| functionality that are applicable in several different contexts. Plugins |
| in the common component should not have dependencies on plugins outside |
| of the Eclipse base.”</em></p> |
| <p>Some conceptual tests to decide what should go into common…</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Is it destined for API ? |
| <ul> |
| <li>if it has no API story, its should be moved into a different |
| component specific to those who need it</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li>Should it ultimately live in base Eclipse ? |
| <ul> |
| <li>common is often used as a temporary staging ground for generic |
| function that will eventually be absorbed into base Eclipse</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li>What are the dependencies? |
| <ul> |
| <li>if the function has dependencies on more than base eclipse, |
| that’s a red flag that it might not be ‘common’</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li>Is it generic? |
| <ul> |
| <li>Is this function generically applicable to multiple domains in |
| practice (not just theory</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p class="ueberschrift">Development - WTP 1.0</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>One of our main goals in the common area is to ?Work with the |
| platform? to help integrate existing frameworks delivered by both |
| projects. |
| <ul> |
| <li>Common Navigator (Move down to Platform/UI in 3.2)</li> |
| <li>Undoable commands (Integrate, and push down requirements)</li> |
| <li>Converged environment / command / data frameworks</li> |
| <li>Flexible Projects (Integrate, Drive requirements)</li> |
| <li>Logical resources (Integrate)</li> |
| <li>Tabbed properties sheet (Move down)</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p class="ueberschrift">Common - Evolution</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Existing plugins may migrate to base Eclipse (or other projects)</li> |
| <ul> |
| <li>tabbes properities sheet</li> |
| <li>project navigator</li> |
| </ul> |
| <li>Existing plugins may not be 'common' enough |
| <ul> |
| <li>in practice function is less 'common' than we initial thought... |
| who's actually using it?</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>We need to collectively scrutinize the 'common' components to rnsure |
| things lives in the right place</p> |
