| Re: [e4-dev] Eclipse 4 talks and tutorials at EclipseCon | 
This sounds very interesting !
Currently an e4 end-user, I started to look at the model/rendering stuff 
for our project's needs. In fact I'm interested in reusing a workbench 
layout inside my own views : we need to arrange different kind of 
components inside a single view in the manner the e4 workbench does 
(with resize and drag&drop support, maybe even minimize/maximize).
I'm also considering that this could be an opportunity to submit bug 
fixes or even enhancements to the eclipse project, but as Marc Teufel 
said, it is difficult to start, and my big question still is how to 
properly setup my local development environment to work on the eclipse 
codebase.
On the wiki I found directions about how to fetch the sources and 
rebuild the eclipse deliverables from scratch (in fact running the 
Eclipse build process locally), which I finally managed to run 
succesfully after several hours. But I found nothing about how to 
properly setup an Eclipse workspace to start working on the Eclipse 
codebase, I mean something like a tutorial explaining how to get the 
code, setup the eclipse ide, run modified code, etc... up to submitting 
code.
I think this would be of great help and woud encourage us (end-users and 
future commiters) to submit fixes/enhancements if it is easy to hack the 
code - test - hack the code - test - etc.
So I'd like very much to see such information in the first chapters of 
the in-depth tutorial !
thanks,
Sun Volland

Although I planned to step down from e4 talks a bit, and let others
build the front row ;-)
I'm open for doing a *very* in depth "tutorial" which is more like a big
question and answer story to get at the very very low level of things
and take a look at advanced topics, like creating your own annotations,
how the model is translated into UIs (SWT, JavaFX), ... .
I would prepare some stuff but if there are no user questions but would
much more love to look into topics the audience is interested in.
Does this sound interesting?

The EclipseCon 2013 deadline is fast approaching, and we have very few
Eclipse 4 talks and tutorials submitted. This is really the hottest area
for EclipseCon attendees, and it is important to have a strong slate of
talks on it. In particular, I think we could use one more Eclipse 4
tutorial, perhaps a more advanced tutorial to complement the
introductory session submitted already. Please consider submitting
something over the next three days! Feel free to ping me if you want to
bounce talk/tutorial ideas off me or have any other questions.
