id - A unique ID used to identify the application deployment mechanism.
name - A user readable string that is used to represent a specific application deployment mechanism to the user.
class - Implementation of the eu.geclipse.core.IApplicationDeployment interface that is used for the application deployment process.
category - A user readable string that is used to categorize deployment mechanisms within the deployment wizard.

Examples:


<extension point="eu.geclipse.core.applicationDeployment">
  <deployment
    id="eu.geclipse.glite.deployment.middleware"
    name="Glite Middleware">
  </deployment>
  <deployment
    category="eu.geclipse.glite.deployment.middleware"
    class="eu.geclipse.glite.deployment.JDLBasedApplicationDeployment"
    id="eu.geclipse.glite.deployment.JDLBasedApplicationDeployment"
    name="JDL-based Application Deployment">
  </deployment>
  <deployment
    category="eu.geclipse.glite.deployment.middleware"
    class="eu.geclipse.glite.deployment.TransferBasedApplicationDeployment"
    id="eu.geclipse.glite.deployment.TransferBasedApplicationDeployment"
    name="Transfer-based Application Deployment">
  </deployment>
</extension>
