Re: [mylyn-integrators] Leveraging Mylyn as a plugin

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but I think some things are out of date for 3.0.5 Mylyn. 1. Does most of the info still apply or is this out of date?


The docs are somewhat stale so when in doubt, work from example code(i.e. Trac connector) and ask questions on this list.
>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?

2 would be more ideal assuming the goal of eventually requesting the feature/api improvements you need of Mylyn so that you could shrink the size of your Mylyn specific mods. What is your timeline since 3.1 is winding down you may want to be working from head instead?
