[teiid-dev] CDK Toolkit Plugin Specifics

[Sumanth P K]

Sanjay  - Please proceed further with the CDK Contributor plugin. I shall
start on the sheet-tab properties. From what I understand, we need to create
a tabbed display similar to the one that opens up when we open the
MANIFEST.mf or plugin.xml in the PDE. Physically there is a single file, but
the information is scattered across various tabs.

Is the sheet-tab properties going to be used for configuring the config
properties elements only or is it that we would need to have the support for
all the elements defined in the Connector 1.5 XSD (
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/connector_1_5.xsd)?

Thanks,
Sumanth.
