Develop Your Own Plugins for Eclipse, Part 1 (O'ReillyNet)

[Posted August 25, 2004 by cook]

O'Reilly is running part one in a series on writing Eclipse plugins. "Eclipse is a nice IDE, of course, but it's arguably the best platform for hosting your own applications. Using Eclipse facilities spares you from re-coding, for the 100th time, a framework for dealing with online help, generating wizards, or saving a file to disk. Eclipse ships with many helpful features, such as a Lucene-ready engine for searching your help documentation. Like any object-oriented developer, you don't want to reinvent the wheel."
