Description Konstantin Scheglov CLA 2011-01-09 06:40:01 EST 
Build Identifier: M20100909-0800

I think that https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=225949 was fixed now quite correct. I still have warning about invalid identifier in simplest case of three levels of categories.


	<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.newWizards">
		<category id="AAA" name="WindowBuilder"/>
		<category id="BBB" name="RCP" parentCategory="AAA"/>
		<category id="CCC" name="XWT" parentCategory="AAA/BBB"/>
	</extension>

  I'm very saw about this - this masks real problems which can be in plugin.xml files.

  And of course I don't understand who was so "smart" to decide to use slashed categories instead of simple identifiers...

  I found place where to add hack to fix this.


Reproducible: Always

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.
