| <td HEIGHT="21">Platform Text provides the basic building blocks for text |
| and text editors within Eclipse and contributes the Eclipse default text |
| editor. Its framework component consists of three parts: |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| The text infrastructure provides facilities for text manipulation, position |
| management, and change notification.</li> |
| |
| <li> |
| JFace Text provides UI components for editing and presenting text. It offers |
| support for rule based styling, content completion, formatting, model reconciling, |
| hover help, and vertical rulers.</li> |
| |
| <li> |
| The text editor framework provides the abstract implementation of an Eclipse |
| text editor.</li> |
| </ul> |
| Editors built with this toolkit are for example the JDT Editor or the CDT |
| Editor.</td> |
