schema.startup.exsd Maven / Gradle / Ivy
The newest version!
This extension point is used to register plug-ins that want to be activated on startup. The class given as the attribute on the startup element must implement the interface <samp>org.eclipse.ui.IStartup</samp>. Once the workbench is started, the method earlyStartup() will be called from a separate thread.
The class specified by the startup element's class attribute will be instantiated and earlyStartup() will be called on the result. Do not specify the plug-in class as the value of the class attribute, or it will be instantiated twice (once by regular plug-in activation, and once by this mechanism).
Plug-ins that provide an extension to this extension point are listed in the workbench preferences and the user may disable any plug-in from early startup.
a fully qualified identifier of the target extension point
an optional identifier of the extension instance
an optional name of the extension instance
a fully qualified name of the class that implements
<samp>org.eclipse.ui.IStartup</samp>.
Mandatory since 3.0. Do not specify the plug-in class as it would be instantiated twice (once by regular plug-in activation, and once by this mechanism).
