On a MPart (or any model element), by calling:

part.getContext().get(iconURI);

Will this return an Image object?

If so, will the context take care of disposing the image at the appropriate time, or is that something I have to manage?

thanks,

JD

No this doesn't work but you might want to take a look at. My addons who
free you from managing resources.

See
http://tomsondev.bestsolution.at/2012/03/28/slides-from-eclipsecon-talks/ the
e4 talk shows starting on page 38 onwards how this works.

The model editor uses this stuff. To make it even easier you could
invent your own annotation @Image("myimage").
