[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-22691) Allow extensions to be injected with Eclipse services

[John Steele (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-22691?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13262800#comment-13262800 ] 

John Steele commented on JBIDE-22691:
-------------------------------------

Extensions need access to both Eclipse provided services (OSGi services, workbench services, etc) as well as user defined services (fragments, Guice, etc). Accessing shared references in a static manner is not always feasible or the best approach.

Example: I have an launch delegate (registered as an extension), and I need a reference to the shared service responsible for executing the build. This shared service could either be a Singleton registered in a Guice module somewhere, or it could be a service located somewhere in a particular eclipse context - PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getService() doesn't cut it.
