h3. New Features Overview
We have a lot of different fixes and improvements in this release and I only touch upon a
little in the following; you can see the full
https://jira.jboss.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&jqlQuery...
change log and
https://jira.jboss.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&jqlQuery...
What's New and Noteworthy for screenshots.
h3. Usage Tracking
By default we now bundle a Usage Plugin that gathers anonymous usage statistics. You will
see a dialog box when you start your Eclipse instance which will ask if you wish to send
statistics or not; it is voluntary to participate but we hope you will since it makes us
happy to know how and where JBoss Tools are used worldwide.
You can see details on how this work http://jboss.org/tools/usage here.
h3. Remote Deployment
JBoss AS Servers now has direct support for doing remote deployment via Eclipse Remote
System Explorer (RSE), making any host with a RSE filesystem (SCP, FTP, etc.) a possible
target for deploying resources. This can be used to deploy to remote system on the local
network or on systems available in the cloud to which you have SCP or FTP access.
h3. Runtime Detection
You no longer have to manually configure individual runtimes within JBoss Tools. We have
moved our runtime detection from JBoss Developer Studio into JBoss Tools it self, allowing
you to point to a JBoss AS, EAP, SOA-P or EPP installation and have all the supported
runtimes (Seam, Drools, etc.) configured inside Eclipse automatically.
h3. Delta Cloud
We are including the first public version of our tooling for http://deltacloud.org Delta
Cloud. The Delta Cloud tooling allows you to browse a Delta Cloud installation, manage
images, start/stop instances and make them easily available in Eclipse Remote System
Explorer which you then can use as targets for the JBoss AS Remote deployment.
h3. Teiid
The Teiid Designer is now bundled in JBoss Tools allowing you to utilize
http://jboss.org/teiid Teiid's features for federating data and query its virtualized
data models. Going forward there will be even more integration between Teiid and the rest
of the plugin suite, i.e. easy usage of Teiid datasources when using Hibernate Tools and
Seam Entities generation.
h3. DocBook Editor
There is now a designated editor supporting DocBook documents. Should remove some of the
problems users were reporting trying to use the HTML Visual Page Editor for editing
DocBook.
h3. Context Dependency Injection
The CDI/Seam team have been providing a lot of feedback to the CDI tooling and this
release therefore have a lot of improvements in context of validation messages, Open
On's and wizards for CDI.
The Maven integration now also automatically configures CDI and Hibernate if your pom.xml
files references CDI or Hibernate artifacts.
h3. Google Web Tool Kit (Experimental)
We have added a GWT Facet to this release allowing you to use Google's (free, but not
open) GWT Eclipse tooling in Eclipse WTP projects without manually configuration. This
allows you to easily enable GWT for Dynamic Web Projects and deploy it to any WTP enabled
server such as JBoss, Tomcat, Glassfish etc.
It is marked Experimental since we hope to convince Google to adopting this into their
tooling instead of only having their Google AppEngine limited wizards (cross your fingers
:) ). If you want to try it see this http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-15794 wiki.
h3. ..and More - Now Go get it!
As always feedback is welcome and we look forward to hear your input and other
contributions.
Have Fun!
