Hi All,

I have been into Eclipse plugin development for some 4-5 months now. My
new assignment is developing a extension point and a new plugin that
servers as the provider to the client plugin.

My problem starts with GMF , i need to provide an extension point to an
Edit Part so that the new plugin may add desired functionality to my
existing object.

Please help me out so as to how to start writing the estension point to an
edit part and the serving plugin for the same.

Actually, i tried to follow the basic tutorials but when i parse the
extension registry to find the serving plugin i get CoreException - failed
to instantiate the class.

My class directly extends the editpart that i wish to customize.

Please let me know where am i going wrong?

Any help is appreciated.

Hello Arpit,

> My class directly extends the editpart that i wish to customize.
What do you want to customize there? GMF already has a number of extension
points, so you can probably use existing..
