You can create pluglets to handle routine tasks and pluglet functionality
offers you an easy way to explore and learn the application programming interfaces
(APIs) offered by the workbench platform and other product extensions. From
a workbench perspective your can write the statement Platform.getWorkbench()
and gain completed access to the entire workbench and its parts. From a modeling
perspective, the UMLModeler class allows you access to a model and its contents.
For example, this pluglet sample lists the contents of a selected class in
a model. For this tutorial, you can use one of the UML models from the Samples
Gallery, Technology samples, UML models.
Note: You need to follow the setup
instructions before importing or starting to work with the new pluglet.
