[jbosstools-dev] Advice on use of apache.directory.browser plugins

Hi,

Wanted to get a handle on the way forward for use of bundles from update sites outside of JBT and
JBT-IS.

Teiid Designer has the ability to model connections to LDAP servers. Up until this point, we have
created the modelling UI from scratch but I have found that
org.apache.directory.studio.ldapbrowser has a superior set of UI widgets that Designer could make
use of. While experimenting I have appended the directory update site [1] to our eclipse TP but
long term, if everything works okay, I would prefer a most resiliant strategy to avoid just
situations as their update site suddenly disappearing.

Can I get some advice on how to proceed with this, in that should the update site be appended to
the JBT TP? Should their update site be mirrored? Is this a non-starter?

Cheers

PGR
