The Eclipse Platform is an IDE for anything, and for nothing in
|
|
particular. It has a lot of built-in generic functionality, but it
|
|
requires plug-ins to extend the Platform's features and to work with
|
|
new content types. Eclipse comes with a base set of plug-ins called
|
|
Java development tooling (JDT) and Plug-in development environment
|
|
(PDE). JDT adds the capabilities of a full-featured Java IDE to the
|
|
Eclipse Platform. PDE adds a number of views and editors that make it
|
|
easier to build plug-ins for Eclipse. The Eclipse Platform together
|
|
with JDT and PDE form the Eclipse SDK, a complete development
|
|
environment for Eclipse-based tools, and for developing Eclipse itself.
