[oomph-dev] Bndtools installations using Oomph

Hi,

There is a move afoot to create Eclipse + Bndtools + bndtools additions/extensions -> Eclipse installations using oomph setups.  e.g. see here [1].

Currently, when a new workspace is created, it's necessary in bndtools for the user to first create a 'bndtools workspace' on the existing Eclipse workspace.  This is typically done by the user via File->New->Bnd OSGi Workspace followed by a wizard letting the user set the disk location (default to the existing workspace), *and* setup a workspace template for the bndtools workspace.  Bndtools workspace templates have a lot of stuff...e.g. project and other templates, repositories used by the projects, bndtools workspace config, etc.

It would be nice if oomph could create the new Bnd OSGi Workspace for the user....using either the default workspace template, or a specified one (e.g. ECF's Remote Services workspace template).

Is there a way to do this in Oomph?...e.g. either invoke a UI command (e.g. File->New->New Bnd OSGi Workspace) on start...or even invoke some API call to e.g. specify the default location and the use of the ECF bndtools.workspace template.  I looked through the available set of oomph 'actions' (not sure what you are calling them), but didn't see any that rang a bell.

Thanksinadvance for any info,

Scott
