Eclipse New Link Wizard
To compliment the HTTP EFS plugin I created a while back I have created a simple “New Link” wizard extension that can be used to create link resources in projects. Manually adding linkedResources elements to the eclipse project descriptor (.project) file is no longer required!
The wizard page implementation class extends org.eclipse.ui.dialogs.WizardNewFileCreationPage (the standard New File wizard page) and just adds an extra control at the bottom to prompt the user for a target URI location. Thanks to the platform ui folks for designing thar page class in such an extensible way.
Plugin source and binary available at Cape Clear Developer.

I think this is great. Mind you, the new file has an ‘advanced’ option that allows you to create a link in the filing system … I would have thought it would be useful to modify that one and put an aribtrary URI in there?
Absolutely Alex,
I was thinking of raising a bugzilla to get the standard New File wizard page changed to accommodate arbitrary URIs.
For my immediate needs it was easier to write a new wizard than try get the platform wizard modified (release cycles being what they are!)
