I would prefer org.eclipse.triquetrum.ui.e4.
Not all in Triquetrum is purely workflow-related, so this bundle might grow to provide other perspectives, general views or other useful UI components for Triquetrum.
It will be great to get an e4-related contribution!
So... running into issues where adding a perspective to the IDE using E4 is not well documented or not possible using declarations but possible by coding against the platform model instance. I suggest adding the perspective using the E3 extension mechanisms for now. We could do a plugin:
org.eclipse.triquetrum.ui.e3 ???
Here is the eclipse bug to kind of follow the e4 stuff:
I found a working example of how to do the perspetive here:
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1066500/
Now to implement it.
so that would be an e4 implementation after all?
looking forward to see the result!
I just commited a branch in my fork. It has a basic perspective with just the Project Explorer and the Editor Area. It is meant to work with the Eclipse IDE and not with with standalone RCP.
I had to do the following to add the plugin and be able to run it:
The reference for adding the perspective to the Eclipse IDE is:
A perspective could be added in order to conform to #160
I am working on my branch. The plan is to add the perspective in a separate plugin:
org.eclipse.triquetrum.e4.ui or org.eclipse.triquetrum.ui.e4 ???
The org.eclipse.triquetrum.workflow.* plugins contain the Graphiti editor use the Eclipse 3 UI model thus as an initial approach I plan to keep the e4 stuff separate.
I am open to renaming the initial contribution to something like org.eclipse.triquetrum.workflow.ui.e4 or something else more logical.
