JDeveloper extension manager

Filed under: — andrejk @ 10:00 pm

Brian duff advised me to turn of some of jdeveloper features in the extension manager, to save some memory. I didn’t really look into it, untill i saw the same advice again today . I was pleasantly surprised when i opened the extension manager. It is much more fine grained and complete than i had imagined. You can really turn off and on just about every feature in Jdeveloper. I disabled some features i’m currently not using, restarted jdeveloper, and i think jdeveloper is now using about 30mb less. You can save your extension manager settings btw, using different names, so you create setups for different purposes.
I wonder if all these features that you can enable and disable in the extension manager are plugins following the plugin standard as proposed by oracle?

    Hi Andrej,

    They are indeed all extensions (plugins), but following the current extension API of JDev rather than JSR-198 at the moment. The JSR is loosely based on our extension API though (well the spec lead is the original architect of JDeveloper’s extension API at any rate).
