[jbosstools-dev] Project Examples API winter is coming

[Fred Bricon]

Hi,

just so you know, while looking at I've been working on some significant 
refactoring in the project examples API, before dealing with 
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17464 :

1 - split the ProjectExample class into a definition and working copy 
classes (https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17713) : basically 
ProjectExample will be kept as a definition class, without its setters 
exposed publicly. A mutable version, ProjectExampleworkingCopy will be 
introduced. A significant number of method previously handling  
ProjectExample instances will see their signature changed to use 
ProjectExampleWorkingCopy instead. Version of project-examples plugins 
will be bumped from 1.6.0-SNAPSHOT to 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT

2 - Move the Maven project example plugin into the examples 
sub-component/folder, in order to cut a cyclic dependency between 
project example tests and maven examples 
(https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17714). Version of 
org.jboss.tools.maven.project.examples will be bumped from 
1.6.0-SNAPSHOT to 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT. It will be added to the examples p2 
site. This change is contained in the jbosstools-central component so it 
shouldn't impact the update sites downstream.
