Hi Dawid,

I don't know projects you described. I also believe that if project is based on 
PDT author is watching this list [😉]  If no one will respond in this thread 
then we can assume that PEX + Zend are only parties that are messing with 
internals.


I big fan of doing more aggressive moves to cleanup PDT but what I'm afraid 
that problem is not with maintained projects but with those abandoned. People 
are still using outdated plugins like e.g. PTI and with such change we will 
break some workflows. Of course we can always say that such plugins will work 
with older version of PDT and do the change (and I'm ok with that) but I just 
wanted to add my thoughts [😉]

Despite minor concerns +1 from me :)

Michal

Temat: [pdt-dev] Maintained PDT extensions

Hi all,

regarding to this issue [1] I have simple question that I added as last comment:

Except PEX (Core, Symfony etc...) and Zend (Studio etc..) extensions somebody 
know other projects (closed source or opend source) that probably require AST 
access and are still maintained (used)? Maybe his authors/maintainers are on 
this list?

I'm asking because I'm thinking about more aggressive option (to make PDT great 
again :P): if everybody agree, move existing AST's to API in PDT 5.0 (Eclipse 
4.7 Oxygen) as-is + small cleanup if needed.

Why? Because I think that as long as we not deliver stable (maybe also simple) 
and well documented API, PDT will never receive stable extensions. Our 
potential extension market is reducing year-after-year due this madness :(

It’s too hot in Wroclaw today ;)
