| Clients should implement this interface when creating an
extension to define images for marker dynamically.
The name of the class should be specified in the extension contributed
to the workbench's maker image provider extension point
(named "org.eclipse.ui.makerImageProvider").
For example, the plug-in's XML markup might contain:
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.makerImageProvider">
<imageprovider
id="com.example.myplugin.myprofiderID"
makertype="com.example.myMarkerType"
icon="icons/basic/view16/myGIF.gif"/>
</extension>
It can also define the image provider using the tag class
instead of icon.
Either the image path specified by the tag icon or
the path returned from getImagePath will be used
to create the image when the following code is executed:
myMarker.getAdapter(IWorkbenchAdapter).getImageDescriptor(myMarker);
