Description-en: Eclipse Java Development Tools (JDT)
The Eclipse Platform is an open and extensible platform for anything and yet
nothing in particular. It provides a foundation for constructing and running
integrated software-development tools. The Eclipse Platform allows tool
builders to independently develop tools that integrate with other people's
tools so seamlessly you can't tell where one tool ends and another starts.
.
This package contains Java Development Tools. These provide a powerful
Java IDE along with several editors, a refactoring engine, Ant and JUnit
integration, a debugger, and many more features.
