 org.eclipse.ui.internal.cheatsheets.registry.RegistryReader
All known Subclasses: org.eclipse.ui.internal.cheatsheets.registry.CheatSheetRegistryReader,
| RegistryReader | | abstract public class RegistryReader (Code) | | Template implementation of a registry reader that creates objects
representing registry contents. Typically, an extension
contains one element, but this reader handles multiple
elements per extension.
To start reading the extensions from the registry for an
extension point, call the method readRegistry.
To read children of an IConfigurationElement, call the
method readElementChildren from your implementation
of the method readElement, as it will not be
done by default.
