Factory Component Content Wizards

Identifier:
org.eclipse.egf.pde.factoryComponentContent

Description:
This extension point provides for contributing wizards that create additional content of the EGF PDE Factory Component projects. After the plug-in manifest and key files have been created, these wizards can be used to add more files and extensions to the initial structure. A typical implementation of this wizard would add content based on a parametrized template customized based on the user choices in the wizard. The goal is to arrive at an asset that is does something useful right after the creation.
