Reuse of PDE project creation operations [message #433318]

Hi,

i am currently working on new components for EMP.GMT.MoDisco project.

Some Operations available from PDE components would fit our needs :
'NewProjectCreationOperation' or 'ConvertProjectToPluginOperation' class
from
'org.eclipse.pde.ui'.

Our need is to create a new Java plugin project. We can then configuring
the project with an additional project nature. I tried to reuse the PDE
operations and it works fine.
...But these operations are 'internal' in 'org.eclipse.pde.ui' component.

Would it not be a wishable evolution to make these operations public ?
Did anyone else ask to reuse these operations outside of the PDE ?

Thanks,
Fabien.

We do not plan to make the UI wizards API.

There are requests such as Bug 250446 and Bug 188795 to make the plug-in project creation accessible programmatically so it could be extended.

You might also be able to have a template that adds the nature.
