[teiid-dev] Cdk Plugin - Export Feature added

[Sanjay Chaudhuri]

Something like this can definitely be done. Most of the time these internal
pde classes cannot be used, unless they have an extension point which can be
used. I shall check to see if the classes can be reused. If not we can
definitely bring in similar code.

Had the same problem while trying to use the internal JarExport and
ArchiveExport which are not published classes but are public classes with
discourages access; however could tweak operation by subclassing.
Let me know if this feature is intended and I shall go ahead and spend time
with eclipse sources which can be pretty laborious debugging at times with
hundreds objects floating around within the plugin framework !!!
