I want to develop an eclipse plugin. Which is the best way to start?

A:
This tutorial is a good place to start. Then you might expand your knowledge by reading one of the more recent Eclipse RCP books, such as "Practical Eclipse RCP Projects". I personally started off with the tutorial about RCP that comes with the Eclipse SDK, so might want to check it out as well - it's basically a shorter version of the first tutorial I recommended you.

A:
Don't forget to use the Eclipse RCP package, specifically designed to build a rich client application.
See this Eclipse packages comparison table.

A:
Eclipse: Building Commercial-Quality Plug-ins (2nd Edition) is a good book.
