Interface ISourceContainerType
-
- All Superinterfaces:
ISourceContainerTypeDelegate
public interface ISourceContainerType extends ISourceContainerTypeDelegate
A source container type represents a kind of container of source code. For example, a source container type may be a project or a directory. A specific project or directory is represented by an instance of a source container type, which is called a source container (ISourceContainer
).A source container type is contributed via the
sourceContainerTypes
extension point, providing a delegate to the work specific to the contributed type. Following is an example contribution.<extension point="org.eclipse.debug.core.sourceContainerTypes"> <sourceContainerType name="Project" class="org.eclipse.debug.internal.core.sourcelookup.containers.ProjectSourceContainerType" id="org.eclipse.debug.core.containerType.project" description="A project in the workspace"> </sourceContainerType> </extension>
