Synchronize View Participants
Identifier:

Description:
This extension point is used to register a synchronize participant with the Synchronize View. A synchronize participant provides a logical connection between local resources and a remote location that is used to share those resources. The Synchronize View displays synchronize participants.
Providers may provide an extension for this extension point, and an implementation of org.eclipse.team.ui.synchronize.ISynchronizeParticipant.

- icon - An icon that will be used when showing this participant in lists and menus.
- id - A unique name that will be used to identify this type of participant.
- class - A fully qualified name of the class the implements org.eclipse.team.ui.synchronize.ISynchronizeParticipant. A common practice is to subclass org.eclipse.team.ui.synchronize.AbstractSynchronizeParticipant in order to inherit some of the default functionality. In addition, it is recommended to subclass org.eclipse.team.ui.synchronize.TeamSubscriberParticipant to benefit from a full featured participant based on the org.eclipse.team.core.TeamSubscriber implementation.
- type - A value identifying the type of participant. Possible values are static if the participant is to be created automatically by the Team plugin or dynamic if the participant will be created and registered with the Synchronize Manager at some other time.
- name - The name of the participant. This will be shown in the UI.
