 Hey,
 
 I just realized that all along I have been creating my plugins with the
 Eclipse 3.2 compatibility option set. I just recently discovered the
 checkbox in the new plug-in project wizard that specifies to create a
 plug-in for the osgi framework only, and not Eclipse 3.2. So, my plugins
 right now extend eclipse.core.runtime everywhere. This is ok for my ui
 plugins which in fact will always run under eclipse, however, I was hoping
 to reuse my core plugins in various environments including server side (i.e.
 Tomcat, or JBoss AS).
 
 What core/management functionality would I lose if I re-wrote my plugins to
 extend the osgi framework only and not extend eclipse.core.runtime?
 
 I created a framework only project and for example didn't see any tabs for
 extensions/extension points in the manifest view. Now, I realize that
 functionality still exists in the framework but does this mean eclipse IDE
 simply does not provide the nice GUI for non eclipse plugins?
