See: Description

Interface Summary
IContextMenuConstants: Constants for menu groups used in context menus for Java views and editors.
IJavaElementSearchConstants: Search scope constants for Java selection dialogs.
IPackagesViewPart: The standard Packages view presents a Java-centric view of the workspace.
ISharedImages: Standard images provided by the Java UI plug-in.
ITypeHierarchyViewPart: The standard type hierarchy view presents a type hierarchy for a given input class or interface.
IWorkingCopyManager: Interface for accessing working copies of `ICompilationUnit` objects.
IWorkingCopyManagerExtension: Extension interface for `IWorkingCopyManager`.
IWorkingCopyProvider: Interface used for Java element content providers to indicate that the content provider can return working copy elements for members below compilation units.

Class Summary
CodeGeneration: Class that offers access to the templates contained in the 'code templates' preference page.
CodeStyleConfiguration: Gives access to the import rewrite configured with the settings as specified in the user interface.
JavadocContentAccess: Helper needed to get the content of a Javadoc comment.
JavaElementComparator: Viewer comparator for Java elements.
JavaElementContentProvider: Deprecated use the StandardJavaElementContentProvider instead
JavaElementImageDescriptor: A `JavaElementImageDescriptor` consists of a base image and several adornments.
JavaElementLabelProvider: Standard label provider for Java elements.
JavaElementLabels: `JavaElementLabels` provides helper methods to render names of Java elements.
JavaElementSorter: Deprecated use `JavaElementComparator` instead.
JavaUI: Central access point for the Java UI plug-in (id `"org.eclipse.jdt.ui"`).

PreferenceConstants: Preference constants used in the JDT-UI preference store.
ProblemsLabelDecorator: LabelDecorator that decorates an element's image with error and warning overlays that represent the severity of markers attached to the element's underlying resource.
ProblemsLabelDecorator.ProblemsLabelChangedEvent: This is a special `LabelProviderChangedEvent` carrying additional information whether the event origins from a maker change.

## Package org.eclipse.jdt.ui Description

Application programming interfaces for interaction with the Eclipse Java User Interface.

## Package Specification

The package provides support classes for presenting Java elements in the user interface.

The class JavaUI is the main access point to the Java user interface components. It allows to programmatically open editors on Java elements and open package and type prompter dialogs. The package exposes constants for retrieving Java user interface parts from the workbench registry. JavaUI gives access to the IWorkingCopyManager. It manages the working copies that are in use for Java compilation units.

The interfaces ITypeHierarchyViewPart and IPackagesViewPart define the programming interface to interact with the type hierarchy and packages view parts.

The classes JavaElementContentProvider and JavaElementLabelProvider support presenting Java elements in JFace viewers.
