Chapter 23. CSS Core Utilities - org.csstudio.core.util.feature

CSS Core Utilities is the group of plug-ins that are supported to be shared across different sites to provide commons functionality among CSS applications, and constitute most of CSS core infrastructure. This includes data definitions, connection services, common Eclipse RCP items or utilities. A plug-in can be added to this feature if the following conditions are met:

  1. there is interested from more than one site in using this plug-in
  2. the maintainer takes responsibility for support to other sites

The org.csstudio.core.util.feature is used to maintain the list of plug-ins that belong to this group, and is not mandated to be packaged and distributed in a product (though one may decide to do so).
