The only plug-ins I use are the ones required to do my job like SoapUI, Maven and SVN. I'm wondering if maybe there are some plug-ins out there that might make my life easier. Are there any Eclipse plug-ins that you find invaluable?
Plugin , which is an abstract class that provides generic facilities for managing plug-ins. An Eclipse installation includes a plugins folder where individual plug-ins are deployed. Each plug-in is installed in its own folder under the plugins folder. A plug-in is described in an XML manifest file, called plugin.
An Eclipse plug-in is basically a Java program, running inside Eclipse (and thus with the same credentials/permissions). Running an untrusted Eclipse plug-in is approximately as safe as running an untrusted Java program.
You can disable a few plugins at startup via "Window > Preferences" from the menu under "General > Startup and Shutdown". Uncheck the items you don't want to run when you start Eclipse. This needs to be done for every workspace.
