The Eclipse Component Info projects aim is to develop an Eclipse plug-in that offers an easy interface/api to retrieve information on installed components of a running Eclipse instance.
This eclipseplugin allows for the export of an eclipse project's runtime configurations to shell scripts in various formats. This allows for the execution of java code OUTSIDE the Eclipse environment without having to custom write the shell script code.
This project packages several third party open source libraries as plugins for the eclipse platform (see http://www.eclipse.org/). These packages can be used to build Eclipse plugins that depend on these third party libraries.
