I've modified the subclipse ui because we had a requirement to
integrate with the Jira issue tracker,
so that the commit dialog in subclipse actually queries for and shows
the Jira issues. Now, in order to
not pollute Subclipse with Jira dependencies, I did NOT add all this
code to the subclipse ui plugin,
but instead created a new extension point:
org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.ui.bugtrackingui, which
third party plugins can use to contribute a UI to the commit dialog,
like this:
I am in favor of the concept here (using an Extension Point). I think
that you should try to get together with the Mylar people though to get
an idea of what they are doing. I think an idea was for them to define
these extension points, and then we would add the code to use it.
An example issue is to picture a scenario where I have plugins for
Bugzilla, JIRA and some other issue tracker all installed. Which one
does Subclipse interact with? There has to be some kind of
project-level configuration for this, as there is for team providers.
Mylar is working on defining that stuff.
