Eclipse a good example?

[ The Eclipse project is incomparable with regards to how it has created a component system that allows multiple development organizations to coordinate (see: Callisto's 7 million lines of code and Europa's 17 million lines of code) their independently developed solutions in a single framework. ]

Is that a good thing that an IDE requires 17 million lines of code to be functional? Have you ever written an Eclipse plugin? Looked at the 17k classes and 10x more methods they have?

Eclipse certainly is a good example.

The effort to extend it apparently isn't hindered by the size of the existing code base.

The core of eclipse is actually very small (see: Equinox).
