<p>
This extension point should be used to register Eclipse code samples. A sample is one or more Eclipse projects that are packaged in a way suitable for subsequent import into the workspace.
<p>
Each sample has a name, one or more project elements and a final perspective. The sample wizard will create a project for each <code>project</code> element, import the content from the archive, and open the final perspective if specified. Projects must be complete i.e. have correct nature and classpath (if Java or plug-in projects).
<p>If target view is specified and contains resource elements, it will be used to select and reveal those resources in the view after the sample has been created.
</p>
<p><b>This extension point is currently provided for internal Eclipse SDK usage only. It should not be used for anything else except Eclipse SDK examples.</b>

each project element will result in a workspace project being created with the content imported from the associated archive.
name of the project to be created in the workspace for this sample
relative path to the ZIP file containing the content of the project to import
shared projects may be listed in more than one sample. When this attribute is <code>true</code>, and the project with the same name already exists in the workspace, it will be silently skipped. Otherwise, users will be prompted for overwrite permission.
a project-relative path of the resource to select and reveal in the target view after creation.
body text of this element should contain description of the sample.
an optional reference to the topic in Help that provides more information about the sample.
specifies an activity that needs to be enabled for this sample
