| 5 | ## Project description |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Eclipse Platform defines the set of frameworks and common services that |
| 8 | collectively make up infrastructure required to support the use of Eclipse as a |
| 9 | component model, as a Rich Client Platform (RCP) and as a comprehensive tool |
| 10 | integration platform. These services and frameworks include a standard workbench |
| 11 | user interface model and portable native widget toolkit, a project model for |
| 12 | managing resources, automatic resource delta management for incremental |
| 13 | compilers and builders, language-independent debug infrastructure, and |
| 14 | infrastructure for distributed multi-user versioned resource management. |
