hi
I would like to build custom plugin project, by extending the current plugin project creation/modification class or API.
Similar to creatiing the custom c/c++ project by extending the CDT class. I have checked the org.eclipse.pde.core.project package, but it is not suffiecient. or not complete.most of the class are internal.
Can you any one help me please

Opening up the project creation wizards as api has been requested before (my quick search didn't find the bug number). There was an attempt made at fixing it, but it was too difficult to decouple the core/ui code to make a usable api.

Depending on how you want to customize it, you could consider just providing a template. We did add api to create a project creation wizard that used the standard pde wizard, but a template was prechosen for you.

Another option would be to write your own UI and use the project creation apis which were added in 3.6. See org.eclipse.pde.core.project There are complete apis there to create a new project, so I'm not sure why it is insufficient for your needs.
