If it overrides the default for *all* secure password settings then
it shouldn't go into any of our plugins meant
to be installed on top of Eclipse. No single plugin should be messing with that.
We could do it in the JBDS distro/setup since here we control the eclipse instance/setup.
Actually, Reading some more on this then if I understand it correctly this extension point
overrides all other password dialogs - even OS specific ones.
http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc....
and
http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc....
both state this extension point should not
be necessary to override.
Since secure storage is used by many things (Server adapter and Teiid is not the only one)
I don't think just overriding this extension point is proper.
If we do it sounds like we would need to provide custom hooks for OSX and Windows
integration.
Btw. from what I can tell this dialog will only show up *once* per machine and only when
using Linux and in context of teiid/server adapter only if your server is remote (i.e. it
won't
need to ask when using local servers)
/max
But if it is done per some specific secure area then we could look at putting it into the
base.
