DLTK (Dynamic Languages Toolkit) — is a tool for vendors, researchers, and end-users who rely on dynamic languages. DLTK is a set of extensible frameworks designed to reduce the complexity of building full featured development environments for dynamic languages such as PHP and Perl.[2] Besides a set of frameworks DLTK provides exemplary Tcl, Ruby, Javascript and Python development environments.

History

[edit]

In 2005 Xored Software inc.[3] proposed Eclipse Dynamic Languages Toolkit Project to the Eclipse Foundation and it was approved in 2006. In 2007 Eclipse DLTK was released as a part of Eclipse Europa. From that moment on, every Eclipse Simultaneous Release comprises a new version of DLTK. Since its very first release, DLTK has been used in various open-source and commercial Eclipse-based development projects.[4]

CodeGear releases commercial version of (3rdRail) development framework (IDE) for Ruby language and Ruby on Rails framework based on DLTK.[5] Zend Technologies leading PDT (PHP Development tools) project sets DLTK base starting from 1.1 version.
