On the same page then. Spent the last couple of years playing with RCP
apps so old habits die hard!

Indeed. Have found ServerContentTreeProvider in
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.ui so will follow that pattern I think.

Sorry that should have been 7.1.1 in that is the jboss-as jars Designer
is currently depending on. But you've got the idea. Essentially, we are
upgrading Designer to teiid 8.1 so its whatever they currently depend on.

Definitely Juno, still learning the other version numbers ;-)
