Package Specification

A workbench part is a visual component within a workbench page.  There are two types: view and editor, as defined by IViewPart and IEditorPart.   An editor is typically used to edit or browse a document or input object.  A view is typically used to navigate a hierarchy of information (like the workspace), open an editor, or display properties for the active editor.  This package provides a base implementation for the definition of views and editors.
