Description David Williams CLA 2005-08-16 12:46:28 EDT
I'm just asking ... 

I notice "the help app" is a seperate plugin/project in the base Eclipse, and 
I was just thinking this would seem to make that UDDI Registry app less of a
mystery. (And, probably, easier to "check out" and modify/fix things as needed). 

Is there a reason its "buried" in another plugin?

David, could you please clarify what do you mean by UDDI Registry app?  Do you 
mean the Web Service Explorer?  What exactly are you proposing to do here?
Comment 2 David Williams CLA 2005-08-25 15:56:56 EDT
Yes, sorry the vagueness, but I need mean web services explorer. 
org.eclipse.wst.ws.explorer

I've just noticed that part (most) of it is related to the webapp, 
contained under wsexplorer folder. Some of the rest is 'higher' in 
the directory, e.g. under 'src' folder, and wasn't clear that we had 
a clear "web app project". I was just wondering why we didn't structure 
it as we (WTP) would structure a "regular" webapp (that WTP would create). 

[And, I realize the may not be identical, since producing web-apps to use from 
a plugin is not a mission of WTP, but ... just wanted to be clear if all the
differences were required, or just structured that way "from history"?] 

Thanks,

David, the organization of the org.eclipse.wst.ws.explorer plugin is mainly 
historic - rooted in its rather unique nature as a webapp that depends uponm 
the Eclipse platform. We are carrying an enhancement, 89101 [1], that will 
allow the Web Services Explorer web app to run independently of Eclipse. Any 
change we make to the structure of the org.eclipse.wst.ws.explorer plugin as I 
think you're (rightfully) suggesting would be done to that purpose, so I'm 
returning your bug as a duplicate of 89101.
