New File Creation Wizards
In addition to manifest files, several other types of files are needed in various aspects and at different stages of plug-in development:
- Extension point schemas - specify the grammar of extension points
- Product configurations - manage all the data needed to define, brand and build an Eclipse product
- Target definitions - define all aspects of a target platform
- Cheat sheets - Create a cheat sheet for an Eclipse product
- Help Tables of Contents - Create a Table of Contents for the documentation in an Eclipse product
- Category Definitions - specify categories to apply to features during export
To help you create these files, PDE provides specialized New File creation wizards available via
File > New > Other... > Plug-in Development
from the top level menu.
