plugin and feature roles and associations in Eclipse-------------------------------
[What is the basic structure of plug-in?] ]
Each plug-in is wrapped up in a directory, and the directory name is also fastidious, such as plug-in's name is edu.sjtu.bbs.eclipse, version is 1.0.0, Then this directory name is edu.sjtu.bbs.eclipse_1.0.0.
and casually open a plugin directory, you can find that there is always a file called plugin.xmL, this file for plugin is very important, it is equivalent to define the plugin operation parameters, without this, plugin can not start,
Like your home refrigerator if you do not know is 110V or 220V, you do not dare to plug into the socket, so always have a description, this is plugin.xml.
[What is feature?] ]
feature is a feature that does not have an actual running library, it's just a way for Eclipse to manage plugins . For example, you have a home decoration lights, always have to switch control, such as the lobby of the lights have a switch control, bedroom lights
There is also a switching control, which is used to control the light and off of the lamp respectively. Again, a feature is used to control whether the plug-in is started or not. Eclipse's update perspective allows you to set the various functions
Enable or disable the widget, you can disable the plug-in startup by disabling the feature. This has the advantage of having a lot of plug-ins on eclipse, but the more loaded, the more loading, and the slower the startup.
Therefore, we can think of the function as a plug -in or plug-in collection switch, to control the state of the plug -in. If the plugins directory has plugins that are not covered by any of the features, I call it the "wild plugin", Eclipse
Start, it will certainly start, it is equivalent to no switch, the power supply has been connected.
