Hi,
I want to extend an existing xmleditor (of a different plugin), but I don`t have the source-code, nor an extension-point of the plugin. But I can`t
use the class directly, because the source wants to access the PluginClass which I can`t create because I don`t have the right descriptor. Has anybody
of you had a similar problem or even better: has solved it?
greetings
Joachim

==>because I don`t have the right descriptor.
Do you mean to say that you do not have a plugin.xml for the plugin that you
want to extend? Are you able to execute the plugin?
==>Has anybody of you had a similar problem or even better or even better

We have successfully extended (in the Java sense of the word) existing
plugins rather than using extension points. Be we are able to execute them
and have access to their plugin.xml. So, again can you elaborate on the 1st
point?
