Extend Qt Creator
Even though Qt Creator and Eclipse are different tools written in different programming languages, they still share the approach of adding all the functionality by plugins. So, from that point of view Qt Creator and Eclipse can be seen more as plugin frameworks instead of IDEs.
A plugin implements certain extension points but at the same time can also define new extension points. And that’s where Qt Creator and Eclipse differentiate.
In Eclipse, the extension points are usually defined as soon as the plugin is implemented meaning that those interfaces are often best guesses based on one example extension if at all. This may easily result in unnecessary extension in the first place or too inflexible or limited interfaces for more real world use cases.
Qt Creator takes another approach. In most cases plugins do not define extension points immediately, so it’s always treated as a leaf. For the first use case which requires an extension we still recommend to put the new functionality into the existing plugin implementation. Once a second or third use case comes up we start refactoring the original plugin and define the extension points. Obviously, this is not a 100% guarantee that those interfaces are perfect and cover all future needs, but it’s definitely better than basing the extension point on only one example or even pure guesses.
