Interface IPlatformDefinition

All Superinterfaces:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.IAdaptable, IPlatformComponent

All Known Implementing Classes:

PlatformDefinition

public interface IPlatformDefinition

extends IPlatformComponent

A platform definition encompasses the J2ME wireless toolkit, configuration and profiles that make up a J2ME platform. For instance, a Nokia 3650 provides CLDC 1.0 and MIDP 1.0, but adds the multimedia API's as well.

Note: This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken as the API evolves.
