Defining Your own Extension Points

Extension Points :: Eclipse Plugin Architecture revolves around 2 terms - Extension and Extension Points. To put it simply, an extension point says, "Here is a slot for you to provide me with new behavior," and an extension says, "Here is the new behavior you asked for."

Most of us know how to add a new behaviour to an existing extension point. This demo talks about adding your own extension point or providing a slot for others to contribute a behaviour.
