Description Mickael Istria CLA 2012-01-02 11:45:01 EST 
In order to be able to drag'n'drop anything in the BPEL designer and to perform useful actions according to what is DND'ed, BPEL designer should provide an extension point that allows to add custom DND behavior.

Hi,

Just to be sure, do we still need this extension after this bug (Bug #367841) was solved?

I could add a DropTargetListener without an extension point. Here is the recipe:

Create a .startup extension. In the matching IStartup action, add a WorkbenchPartListener, that looks for all opened parts. If the opened part is a BPELMultipageEditor, retrieve its BPELEditor, then its GraphicalViewer and add the DropTargetListener

OK. An extension-point would be a better API, but there is a workaround. We can keep this for later.
