Hmmm... good question. Cross-posting to the Babel newsgroup, maybe
someone there knows. I am new to the tool as well so I don't yet know
the answer.

This key is used in Help>About Eclipse SDK>Feature Details. The last back
slash on each line is a Java resource bundle continuation character. They
are just for separating long lines. Technically, we can have something
like this:

Eclipse C/C++ Development Tooling Source Code\n\nVersion:
{featureVersion}\n...

but it's very hard to read.

Therefore, just translate the text before "\n\". Here is a sample
translation in French:

Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools\n\
\n\
Version : {featureVersion}\n\
ID de génération : {0}\n\
\n\
