Eclipse (part 1)
Tuesday 10:45 - 12:00 (Tools Room)
Eclipse (www.eclipse.org) is an open source platform for building tools for
developers in Java. The platform was designed from the ground-up with
extensibility in mind. At its core is a scalable plug-in mechanism and a
rich set of published APIs. Almost everything in Eclipse is done by
contributing plug-ins to a tiny little kernel. Many Eclipse plugins exist
today ranging from full blown commercial products to small experimental
extensions. Eclipse itself comes with a set of plugins that extend the
platform into a full blown Java development environment. The first part of
the talk gives a technical overview of Eclipse architecture and presents
the Eclipse project. In the second part we take a closer look at the
plug-in mechanism and describe how to write plug-ins and how to contribute
to Eclipse. It presents the design philosophy and rules you should follow
when extending Eclipse so that you can play nicely in Eclipse's sandbox. Link: www.eclipse.org
