org.eclipse.update.core
Interface ISiteFeatureReference

All Superinterfaces:: IAdaptable, IFeatureReference, IPlatformEnvironment

All Known Implementing Classes:: SiteFeatureReference

Deprecated. The org.eclipse.update component has been replaced by Equinox p2. This provisional API was never promoted to stable API, and may be removed from a future release of the platform.

public interface ISiteFeatureReference
extends IFeatureReference, IAdaptable
extends IFeatureReference, IAdaptable

Site Feature reference. A reference to a feature on a particular update site.

Clients may implement this interface. However, in most cases clients should directly instantiate or subclass the provided implementation of this interface.

Note: This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Since:: 2.1
See Also:: SiteFeatureReference
