| The Platform defines the set of frameworks and common services that collectively | |
| make up "integration-ware" required to support a comprehensive | |
| tool integration platform. These services and frameworks represent the common | |
| facilities required by most tool builders including a standard workbench | |
| user interface and project model for managing resources, portable native | |
| widget and user interface libraries, automatic resource delta management | |
| for incremental compilers and builders, language-independent debug infrastructure, | |
| and infrastructure for distributed multi-user versioned resource management. | |

| The JDT provides the tool plug-ins for the platform that implement a Java | |
| IDE for power-users, that supports the development of any Java application, | |
| including Eclipse plug-ins. The JDT adds the notion of Java projects and | |
| a Java perspective to the Eclipse platform, as well as a number of views, | |
| editors, wizards, builders, and code merging and refactoring tools. The | |
| JDT allows Eclipse to be a development environment for itself. The JDT plug-ins | |
| themselves can also be further extended by other tool builders.</td> | |

| The PDE project provides a number of views and editors that make is easier | |
| to build plug-ins for Eclipse. Using the PDE, you can create your plug-in | |
| manifest file (plugin.xml), specify your plug-in runtime and other required | |
| plug-ins, define extension points, including their specific markup, associate | |
| XML Schema files with the extension point markup so extensions can be validated, | |
| create extensions on other plug-in extension points, etc. The PDE makes | |
| integrating plug-ins easy and fun.<br> | |
