I'm looking at using EMF and having looked at the generated EMF code I've noticed the editor code seems to use a lot of Eclipse actions.
My understanding is that actions have been deprecated and that Eclipse commands are recommended instead.
Are there any plans to change the EMF code generators to use Eclipse commands?
Is there any need to do this?
Will actions still be supported in Eclipse 4.0 on beyond?
And so will the EMF action code still be supported within Eclipse 4.0?
If I want to extend the generated code should I being using Eclipse commands or actions?

Any advice is much appreciated

Thanks
Tony

Yes, it's pretty hard to keep up.

No.

Not so much.

Eclipse 4.0 provides a backward compatibility layer.

Yes, I'm not expecting to have to do anything special to run with
Eclipse 4.x.

Whatever seems most convenient. You might try commands and see how that
works out.
