I have a wizard to collect couple of values. This wizard, on finish, opens a MPart. I managed to inject EPartService and EModelService. The wizard is opened like this in a handler.
NewConnectionWizard wizard = ContextInjectionFactory.make(
NewConnectionWizard.class, context);
WizardDialog dialog = new WizardDialog(shell, wizard);
dialog.open();

I want to know how to pass objects to the new part. I can't use CIF.make() as my part does not extend MPart. I did some workaround and found an approach. This is the code I have in my NewConnectionWizard.performFinish().
IEclipseContext childContext = context.createChild();
childContext.set("a_for", "apple");
MPart connectionPart = partService.createPart("partdescriptor.connection");
connectionPart.setContext(childContext);
partService.showPart(connectionPart, PartState.ACTIVATE);

I can even get the value in ConnectionPart.createControls (@PostConstruct) method.

Am I following the right approach? I searched for all posts related to IEclipseContext here but I couldn't get a post relevant to this scenario.

It is not a good idea to push your own context - it is the systems
responsibility to create and populate the context.

Still currently don't have a solution for you beside using the
persistedState to pass on information.
