e4 New Project Wizard [message #1463632]

Thu, 06 November 2014 14:26

I am trying to create a custom wizard for creating a new project (by extending the org.eclipse.ui.wizards.newresource.BasicNewProjectResourceWizard class) but now I realize that this component is based on the 3.x API and cannot be used directly in an e4 application.

Surely, someone else has attempted to do this and as a result created their own custom version of a new project wizard. If so, would you be willing to share the code or guide me in the right direction?

Thank you

Hi Patty,

did you get any answer for this request? I have the same problem now but
think that this is a general problem. I assume that the concept of a
New-Wizard is specific to the Project-Explorer as it adds something to
the Eclipse Workspace, which is a specific E3-Concept itself. As far as
I understand there is not yet any E4-pendant for the project explorer or
the workspace with resources.

My approach would be to implement a custom e4-View as a custom file
browser with custom menus where I can add my own Wizards in the context-
and file-menu the standard e4-way.

If there is any other project explorer approach in e4, maybe someone can
share it.

Cheers,
Hauke
