# Eclipse Platform
Map of Platform Plug-ins

The Eclipse Platform provides basic support for plug-ins, resources, and the workbench.

The Eclipse Platform itself is divided up into a number of separate plug-ins. The following table shows which API packages are found in which plug-ins as of Eclipse 3.1. This table is useful for determining which plug-ins a given plug-in should include as prerequisites.

Note 1: Plug-ins needing access to the Eclipse runtime API must list `org.eclipse.core.runtime` (or `org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility`) as a prerequisite plug-in. `org.eclipse.core.runtime` re-exports API from the OSGi-specific plug-ins (e.g., `org.eclipse.osgi`). The OSGi plug-ins should never be explicitly listed as prerequisites.

Note 2: These pre-3.0 API packages are obsolete and have been moved to the `org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility` plug-in.

Note 3: Plug-ins needing access to the JFace API must list `org.eclipse.ui` as a prerequisite plug-in. `org.eclipse.ui` re-exports API from the JFace plug-in. The `org.eclipse.jface` plug-in should never be explicitly listed as a prerequisite.

Note 4: Some of the JFace text packages are split between the `org.eclipse.jface.text` and the `org.eclipse.text` plug-ins.

Note 5: Plug-ins needing access to the SWT API must list `org.eclipse.ui` as a prerequisite plug-in. `org.eclipse.ui` re-exports API from the SWT plug-in. The `org.eclipse.swt` plug-in should never be explicitly listed as a prerequisite.

Note 6: The `org.eclipse.ui.texteditor` package is split between the `org.eclipse.ui.editors` and the `org.eclipse.ui.workbench.texteditor` plug-ins.

Note 7: Plug-ins needing access to the Workbench UI API must list `org.eclipse.ui` as a prerequisite plug-in. `org.eclipse.ui` re-exports API from the `org.eclipse.ui.workbench` plug-in. The `org.eclipse.ui.workbench` plug-in should never be explicitly listed as a prerequisite.

Note 8: Some of the UI packages are split between the `org.eclipse.ui` and the `org.eclipse.ui.ide` plug-ins.

Note 9: The plug-in `org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86` is available on Win32/x86 platforms only.
