[teiid-dev] Cdk Plugin - Export Feature added

[Sanjay Chaudhuri]

We will have our own wizard, so we will have to provide our gateway to
similar features either directy into eclipse code or use similar coding
unless we decide to subclass New Class Wizard; not sure how far that will be
possible. Anyway, having the feature will not be a problem; I shall look
into the best way of doing it.

If there is a base class to begin with, we can prepopulate it in the wizard
and then have the choice to use one of the existing templates or use
something like generating from the interface/class. I am sure it will be
more reflection code than any eclipse specific code probably ... I need to
look at it. However it is better to use eclipse infrastructure as much
possible, because everything in a workspace is a resource and eclipse manage
concurrency very well.

Whenever you get time, please send me over the use-cases for the wizard with
the template code as well as what exactly I need to generate if it's from
some base class; a template for that would be good to, for me to look at the
end result.

Thanks

Sanjay
