When looking for a rich-client platform as the basis of your applications, you will find that there are only two to choose from—the NetBeans Platform and Eclipse RCP. The NetBeans Platform and Eclipse RCP are more similar than they are different. Both provide a framework for desktop application developers. In both cases, a large number of features are provided out of the box, from a docking framework, to an action system, to update facilities, and much more besides. In both cases, a rich set of APIs are provided, accompanied by many tutorials, FAQs, and several books. However, there are some very significant differences that you need to be aware of when choosing between them.
