The
TopManager
documentation should be consulted for a start on how to access any
part of the IDE; it provides all of the standard system objects, and
can be used to perform a few top-level actions like exiting, showing
dialogs, etc.
TopManager.getDefault().getPlaces()
may be used to get a list of interesting locations (nodes and folders
in the IDE).
The superclass
ServiceType
is the basis of the
Services API.
