This extension point is used to register resource creation wizard extensions. Creation wizards appear as choices within the "New Dialog", and are typically used to create folders and files.
<p>
In the "New Dialog", wizards are organized into categories which usually reflect a particular problem domain. For instance, a Java oriented plugin may define a category called "Java" which is appropriate for "Class" or "Package" creation wizards. The categories defined by one plug-in can be referenced by other plug-ins using the category attribute. Uncategorized wizards, as well as wizards with invalid category paths, will end up in an "Other" category.
</p>
<p>
Wizards may optionally specify a description subelement whose body should contain short text about the wizard.

Following is an example of creation wizard configuration:

<category
id="com.xyz.XYZ"
name="XYZ Wizards">
</category>
<category
id="com.xyz.XYZ.Web"
name="Web Wizards"
parentCategory="com.xyz.XYZ">
</category>
<wizard
id="com.xyz.wizard1"
name="XYZ artifact"
category="com.xyz.XYZ/com.xyz.XYZ.Web"
icon="./icons/XYZwizard1.gif"
class="com.xyz.XYZWizard1">
<description>
Create a simple XYZ artifact and set initial content
</description>
<selection class="org.eclipse.core.resources.IResource"/>
</wizard>
</extension>
</pre>
</p>
The value of the class attribute must represent a class
that implements <samp>org.eclipse.ui.INewWizard</samp>.
If the wizard is created from within the
New Wizard it will be inserted into the existing wizard.
If the wizard is launched as a shortcut
(from the File New menu or a toolbar button) it will
appear standalone as a separate dialog box.
The workbench comes with wizards for creating empty
resources of the following types:
project, folder and file. These wizards are registered
using the same mechanism as described above.
Additional wizards may also appear, subject to
particular platform installation.
