Package javax.ide.util Description

This package contains utility classes. One of those classes is the IDELocator class. This class can be used by extension writers to get a hold of the javax.ide.IDE.

Another class in this package is the MetaClass class. This class is used to find out information about classes described in extension deployment descriptors without involving the class loader.
