<P> The Eclipse Foundation is a not-for-profit member-supported corporation | |
that hosts community based open source projects. Eclipse creates | |
royalty-free technology and a universal platform for development | |
tools integration, modeling, testing and functionally-rich application | |
construction. Eclipse-based offerings give developers freedom of | |
choice in a multi-language, multi-platform, multi-vendor supported | |
environment. Eclipse delivers a dynamic plug-in based framework | |
that makes it easier to create and integrate technology, saving | |
time and money. By collaborating and sharing core integration technology, | |
providers can concentrate and focus on areas of expertise and differentiation. | |
The Eclipse Platform is written in the Java language and comes with | |
extensive plug-in construction toolkits and examples. It has already | |
been deployed on a range of development workstations including Linux, | |
QNX, Mac OS X and Windows-based systems. Full details of the Eclipse | |
Foundation and white papers documenting the design of the Eclipse | |
Platform are available at <a href="http://www.eclipse.org" target="_top">www.eclipse.org</a>.</p> | |
