Eclipse Plugin

Development with Eclipse Plugin Offers Greater Flexibility

Enterprises today must focus on speed and agility. The ability not only to move swiftly but to change directions quickly is a key aspect of competitiveness. To achieve this, enterprises must have a business infrastructure that allows for the rapid development and deployment of business-critical applications to support employees, interact with customers, communicate with partners, and integrate suppliers. For this reason, many enterprise application developers today are choosing development tools built with an Eclipse plugin in order to improve efficiency in developing applications. Eclipse is an open source community dedicated to establishing a universal platform and providing a plugin based framework for creating, integrating and using software tools. Development applications featuring an Eclipse plugin offer developers greater freedom of choice in a multi-language, multi-platform, multi-vendor supported environment. When developers want to build a business application with an Eclipse plugin, they turn to Progress Software.
