WizardResourceImportPage.createDestinationGroup is final? [message #336396]

Hello,

I was trying to reuse parts of the WizardResourceImportPage in one of my
wizards, and I wanted to modify the part containing the destination
widgets, but I couldn't do that as this method was declared final in the
class.

Is there a reason why this particular method is final, while
createSourceGroup and createOptionsGroup are not.

Thanks in advance,
Mamado

Not sure of why its been final, ideally it shouldn't be. You can
still override the createControl() and customize your UI.

Thanks a lot Prakash,

I understand this, but I wanted to avoid duplicating code as much as I
can, but I will have to do this at the end I guess.

Is there a way to modify this, shall I open a bug on the platform?

Best Regards,
Mamado.
