Re: [ecf-dev] Thoughts about ECF connection ui

Hi Erkki,

I think this is a good idea, but providing a default implementation

I agree completely. I neglected to say that I would expect there to be
an implementations of IConnectWizard and/or IConnectWizardPage in
org.eclipse.ecf.ui packages (and these could extend the JFace impls of
Wizard, etc).
I don't like the current situation where I have to describe what the
UI looks like in the container factory extension point.
Right.
Also, what facility should provide auto-connect at startup? I
personally think that auto-connect should have no dependencies on UI
or wizards in particular (but a wizard should be able to specify that
auto-connect should be used. (Note: I have no idea how it currently
works, maybe it already is as I described?)
There is currently a 'startup' extension point in org.eclipse.ecf that
allows extensions to register themselves as having Jobs to execute upon
ECF startup (the loading/start of the ECF core plugin). Is this what
you mean? The current connect dialog check box uses this mechanism and
I expect the new ones can/will as well.
I think it should follow the tradition of IConfigurationWizard,
INewWizard, IImportWizard, IExportWizard by extending IWizard, not
IWizardPage.
Yeah, that's my inclination too.
Thanks,
Scott
