Description Ivan Furnadjiev CLA 2012-07-30 06:35:28 EDT
Currently, all tools templates register "org.eclipse.core.runtime.applications" applications. As "startup" parameter is already deprecated we should convert them to simple entry points and register them by path.
Comment 1 Ivan Furnadjiev CLA 2012-07-31 03:55:18 EDT
Another option is to keep the templates based on IApplication, but this needs RAP framework (WorkbenchApplicationConfigurator#registerApplicationEntryPoints) to be changed in order to register IApplications by path. The question is: what will be the path - the simple or the unique application identifier? If we want to continue the support for IApplication after removing the deprecated "startup" parameter, we need this change anyway.

Templates has been reworked in commit c54849d6355d40cfd57b8275ef9d57c47d00d57e.
