| <h3>Marketplace Client</h3> |
| |
| <p>Marketplace Client is a rich client solution for installing |
| solutions listed on <a href="http://marketplace.eclipse.org/">Eclipse |
| Marketplace</a> directly from an Eclipse Installation</p> |
| |
| <p>The Eclipse community has hundreds, if not thousands, of |
| third-party plugins that users can add to their Eclipse |
| installation. Unfortunately, there is not easy way to discover and |
| install these solutions from within Eclipse.</p> |
| |
| <p>The Eclipse Foundation has recently launched a new website, called |
| Eclipse Marketplace, that provides a listing of Eclipse-based |
| solutions. The listings allow each solution provider to specify a p2 |
| update site for their solution. Eclipse users now have a central |
| repository to find Eclipse solutions but the install process is still |
| not tightly integrated with the Eclipse workspace.</p> |
| |
| <p>MPC will provide the tight install integration between the Eclipse |
| workspace and Eclipse Marketplace, plus other third party solution |
| listings. MPC will be included in many of the EPP packages.</p> |
