Package org.eclipse.rse.services Description
Application programming interface for the RSE Services Layer.
Package Specification
The RSE Services layer provides interfaces and basic utility classes
for remote operations. There is no restriction whatsoever about the
kind of those operations, and actually there isn't even a need for
remote systems to be involved. The Services defined here provide
basic functionality for RSE to operate on.
The RSE Services layer is designed to have only minimal dependency into
Eclipse core APIs, such that Services can eventually be re-used in
environments outside Eclipse. This can be done today by providing a library
with mock objects for the few Eclipse interfaces that Services currently use:
IAdaptable, IProgressMonitor,
IStatus, NLS, PlatformObject
and few others related to the Eclipse Extension Registry, which are only
used in the Activator and can thus be replaced easily by a different
mechanisms for providing extensions.
