Description-en: Eclipse platform without development plug-ins
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 provides the Eclipse Platform and is the base for all Eclipse
development plug-ins, but it does not include any. These are available in
different packages, for example:
.
* eclipse-jdt Java Development Tools
* eclipse-pde Plug-in Development Tools
* eclipse-cdt C/C++ Development Tools
