Hello

I'm working on a client/server application and I'm using mylyn to handle
my own Workflow Tasks.
The application works with a database and no local resources.

Before adding the mylyn plug-ins and their required dependencies I had 100
plug-ins in my Launch Configuration, afterwards the Configuration ended up
with 128 plug-ins.
Which would be ok but some of the plug-ins contribute Menu/Toolbar items,
preference pages and so on. After analyzing the dependencies I found a
point to which I think is a discussion worth.

First here what I found out:

My application requires:

org.eclipse.mylyn.tasks.ui
org.eclipse.mylyn.tasks.core
org.eclipse.mylyn.commons.ui

Those plug-ins require:

org.eclipse.mylyn.commons.core
org.eclipse.mylyn.commons.net
org.eclipse.mylyn.context.core
org.eclipse.mylyn.monitor.core
org.eclipse.mylyn.monitor.ui

After adding all required plug-ins (without org.eclipse.search and it's
dependencies) I end up with 120 plug-ins which don't contribute unwanted
stuff to the ui.

Now after adding org.eclipse.search I also have to add the following
plug-ins:

org.eclipse.team.ui
org.eclipse.ui.navigator
org.eclipse.ui.navigator.resources
and some others...

Including org.eclipse.search the above plug-ins contribute a lot of
unwanted ui components. Unwanted because I don't want "Team Pereference",
I especially don't want to have a "File Search" since it's a DB
application and I don't need a "Task Search".

So I was thinking maybe it's possible to refactor the
"org.eclipse.mylyn.tasks.ui" plug-in and extract all the search related
stuff into an own plug-in "org.eclipse.mylyn.tasks.search" or something
similar?

After removing org.eclipse.search from the Required-Plugins I get a few
compile errors, but maybe doable?

So what does the mylyn team think of this, impossible?

greets
Flavio
