Abstract
The eclipse phenomenon has put such an impact on the software development community that more than 100 companies are offering products built on top of Eclipse framework that range from Web development tools to tools for developing applications for embedded computers. Initially Eclipse Parallel Tools Platform was intended as a Java development environment, but later on addition of support from many other languages such as C, C++, Fortran, Python, and Perl has been seen. Workbench, which is a user interface started while the launching Eclipse, provides several menus, editors, and views for controlling and interacting with Eclipse and other tools. As starting Eclipse uses the native window system, one should download the version for a particular operating system or window system combination. A standard feature of eclipse is that it has the ability to seamlessly develop applications in a team environment.
