All Implemented Interfaces:

public class AdapterPlugin

extends org.eclipse.core.runtime.Plugin

This class contains various operations that allows the Generic Log Adapter to run within Eclipse. This class is where all of the workbench interaction should be placed. Anyone who uses either the class object or instances of this class must code in such a manner as to handle linkage/resolution problems at runtime. This is because the Eclipse runtime is not nessesary to run the Generic Log Adapter.
