Where is the Equivalent to applicationclass implementing IApplication [message #896303]

Hi to all,

I try to migrate my eclipse rcp to cool eclipse 4, because
styling is really cool.

I have a small question:

In old rcp-application I had a class which implements IApplication and in which
I could initialize things like my EMF-Model.
This class isn't called anymore.
Is there a different way to initialize things at startup?

Thanks for your help,

Best regards
Markus

Yes lifecycle hooks. e4 apps launch with E4Application as the
IApplication unless we are talking here about running your old RCP using
the compat layer.

Hi Tom,

thanks for your help,

I have added a xml-element property

<property name="lifeCycleURI"
value="bundleclass://PLUGIN/FQN">
</property>

to my org.eclipse.core.runtime.products - extension point and
added a method with an annotation @PostContextCreate to be called at startup.

This works perfectly.

Best regards
Markus
