[ImageJ-devel] Calling IJ legacy methods

[Curtis Rueden]

Hi Michael & Dscho,

> In particular, right now I'm looking for a BrowserLauncher

We can discuss more when I return from vacation (Jan 17) but one option is
to create a BrowserService by stealing the (permissively licensed)
BrowserLauncher code and exposing the functions through an extension of
AbstractService. This sort of thing is an excellent way for more developers
to contribute to IJ2 right now, since it's how we would add such support
anyway. Many currently missing utility features can be added in such
fashion.

Regards,
Curtis
