Is the book still relevant or have there sufficient changes to the way

Re: Book still relevant?
there's a second edition from 2006 covering Eclipse 3.2of course much happens with 3.3 and 3.4 - think you should contact the
authors if they plan a new edition.
the concepts "how to build commercial quality plugins" of course are
still valid.
you should also watch for the 2nd edition of the rcp book
