Hi Authors,
I have been using Eclipse for Java/J2EE Development.
Many a times while writing some code I strongly feel that there has to be some plug-in for doing that certain task.
I even thought about writing the same but then I could not find a approach which would tell me how to write the plug-in(with UI) from the scratch.
There are some good tutorials out there on internet but reading from a book is different experience. Is this something that I can find for in your book?

Regards,
Amit

The 'Eclipse Plug-ins' book assumes that you are fairly proficient in Java, but no prior knowledge of Eclipse is necessary. Chapter 1 starts out introducing Eclipse from a user's stand point. Chapters 2 and 3 walk you through the process of building your first plug-in. Chapters 6, 7, 8 and beyond each introduce a new aspect of Eclipse API and incrementally enhance the "favorites" plug-in example started in Chapter 2. This is a very "hands on" book with lots of example code and a samples manager (http://www.qualityeclipse.com/) for loading each Chapter's sample code into your workspace for you to review and run.
