Welcome Screen Content [message #212150] Fri, 25 May 2007 19:10 Go to next message

I am a relative newcomer to the Eclipse Framework and am trying to
understand how the Welcome Page is put together. I was also having
difficulty deciding where a question like this might go.

The key thing that I am trying to understand is where exactly the content
for the welcome page is stored. I can find all the xml and ccs files
relating to the display and intro extention however I can't find the actual
content.

The reason I want to know is so that I can add new Welcome page content such
as extra tutorials.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is even an example of how to contribute an own HelloWorld intro part.

Hello Michael,

First off thanks for your response.

Let me clarify exactly what I am trying to do. I would like to add
additional content to the existing Eclipse Welcome Screen and not create a
new one. I have been reading all about the plug-ins and PDE ways to create
a brand new welcome page however have been unable to completly understand
how to simply add content. I can see in the
eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.ui.intro.universal_3.2.1.R321_v2 0060905
directory of my install all the .xml and .css files which define the plug-in
and the layout, however I cannot find the actual content. Basically I would
like to add additional tutorial and sample items while keeping the existing
content as is. Perhaps there is something I am missing.

Thanks,

Chris
