[mylyn-integrators] Leveraging Mylyn as a plugin

[Vincent Vallarine <vvallarine@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a need to utilize Mylyn from within my RCP application.  I'm
going to need to add to it (both on the GUI and the backend core).  I've
been looking at:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Mylyn/Integrator_Reference
and
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn_Contributor_Reference

but I think some things are out of date for 3.0.5 Mylyn.  
1. Does most of the info still apply or is this out of date?


>From a high level, I have a question as to the best way to approach
this.  Is it better to:

1. Download the Mylyn source and extend it from there and then use the
new source to build my plugin to my RCP?
2. Create my own plugin that depends on the existing Mylyn code to
extend its functionality that way?




Thanks in advance,

Vinny
