New File Creation Wizards

In addition to manifest files, several other types of files are needed in various aspects and at different stages of plug-in development:

- Extension point schemas - specify the grammar of extension points
- Product configurations - manage all the data needed to define, brand and build an Eclipse product
- Target definitions - define all aspects of a target platform.
- Cheat sheets - Create a cheat sheet for an Eclipse product.

To help you create these files, PDE provides specialized New File creation wizards available via File > New > Other... > Plug-in Development from the top level menu.

For details on individual wizards, refer to the following documents:

- Product Configuration
