Re: [platform-dev] HOWTO: Minimal Eclipse Application Framework

Hi Urs,

In what version of Eclipse... It is easier in 2.0 than 2.1.
It also depends if you want the update manager, or not...

In Eclipse 2.1, with the update manager, you will need 
the following plug-ins and fragments, on Windows,
adapt for your own host environment.

        - org.apache.ant
        - org.apache.lucene
        - org.apache.xerces
        - org.eclipse.ant.core

        - org.eclipse.core.boot
        - org.eclipse.core.runtime
        - org.eclipse.core.ressources
        - org.eclipse.core.ressources.win32

        - org.eclipse.help
        - org.eclipse.help.ui
        - org.eclipse.help.ui.win32

        - org.eclipse.search
        
        - org.eclipse.jface
        - org.eclipse.jface.text
        - org.eclipse.swt
        - org.eclipse.swt.win32
        - org.eclipse.text

        - org.eclipse.tomcat

        - org.eclipse.ui
        - org.eclipse.ui.editors
        - org.eclipse.ui.views
        - org.eclipse.ui.win32
        - org.eclipse.ui.workbench
        - org.eclipse.ui.workbench.texteditor

        - org.eclipse.update.core
        - org.eclipse.update.core.win32
        - org.eclipse.update.ui
        - org.eclipse.update.ui.forms
        - org.eclipse.update.ui.win32


If you don't want the update manager, you still need
org.eclipse.update.core and org.eclipse.update.win32...
You will be able to get rid off search, some help,
I believe tomcat...

In Eclipse 2.0, this are less plug-ins... but they are 
bigger, so it is no saving you footprint.

Anyway, hope this helps.

Hi Folks,

I would like to use eclipse as an application framework but eclipse allready
comes with several plugins that I don't want in my application. I found in a
document that it is necessary to delete all JDT, PDE, and VCM plugins but
this does still not lead to a minimal framework. Does anybody know exactly
which plugins are needed in order to have a minimal framework (please don't
tell me which plugins are not needed because there are allready hundreds
that I do not need and I think that there are only a few which I really
need). Has anybody experiences with implementing a own application based on
a minimal eclipse framework.

Thanx for your attention.

Urs
