Add a new external compare tool in the preference page
Hello All,
I want to add a new compare tool in External Compare tools preference page in eclipse RCP. I want to do this programmatically. I am extending com.ibm.team.filesystem.rcp.core.externalCompareTool extension point. <extension point="com.ibm.team.filesystem.rcp.core.externalCompareTool"> <externalCompareTool class="test.CustomCompareTool"></externalCompareTool> </extension> In the documentation , it is said that the class CustomCompareTool should extend the below class. com.ibm.team.filesystem.rcp.core.compare.AbstractExternalCompareTool I getting Access Restriction Error whenever I try to extend AbstractExternalCompareTool class. I am getting access error only for some classes. Note: I have added all the required dependencies in my plugin.xml. Please tell me how to proceed? Regards, Rajagopal |

See http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t97259.html to understand the meaning of the error. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1089904/access-restriction-on-class-due-to-restriction-on-required-library for a couple of possible fixes, depending on what class you're trying to use. If these don't seem relevant, let me know the specifics of what you aren't able to access. |
