As a highly extensible platform, Eclipse is used by everyone from independent software developers to NASA. Key to this is Eclipse s plug-in ecosystem, which allows applications to be developed in a modular architecture and extended through the use of plug-ins and features.

This books takes you on the full journey of plug-in development, starting with an introduction to Eclipse plug-ins, continuing through packaging, and culminating in automated testing and deployment. The example code provides simple snippets that can be developed and extended to get you going quickly.
