Description Hirotaka Matsumoto CLA 2005-06-20 05:04:20 EDT
org.eclipse.ui.internal.WorkbenchMessages has messages which we can 
re-use to keep the same terminologies/labels. ( i.e. Information,
Select all,...)

But this is in an internal package so that we are encouraged not
to use it. We'd like to share these common messages.

Please suggest some messages you would like promoted to API
Comment 2 Hirotaka Matsumoto CLA 2006-04-17 00:48:42 EDT
we used to use the following messages :

WorkbenchMessages.getString("Information")
WorkbenchMessages.getString("PluginAction.operationNotAvailableMessage")
WorkbenchMessages.getString("SelectionDialog.selectLabel")
WorkbenchMessages.getString("SelectionDialog.deselectLabel")

But probably we need to ask other teams, such as WTP, for the candidates.
I've seen WTP used to use this class before ( but now I think they made
a copy of these messages, though.)

There are currently no plans to work on this although we would be happy to review a patch

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
