If you are interested in visualizing eclipse plugins (watching pre-canned
ones or creating your own), check out the Eclipse Monitor shipped with the
Jikes Bytecode Toolkit (jikesBT). Using bytecode instrumentation, plugin
jars are modified and the resulting introspection events are used to draw
plugins and their communication and execution:

The visualization runtime is a plugin itself and declares an extension point
for people to define their own custom visualization (a sound generator and
profiling tool is included). All this to be demoed at OOPSLA'03 at the
demonstrations and posters track:

The Eclipse Monitor is shipped as an example in source code with JikesBT,
because frankly we don't quite know what to do with it yet. Recommendations
(such as moving it to an eclipse technology under CPL) are welcome.
