A JBoss Project

Red Hat

Posts tagged with 'jbosscentral'

I’m happy to announce that from today JBoss Tools 4.3 Beta1 and Developer Studio 9 Beta1 is available for download.

Java 8 to run Eclipse; older runtimes OK for builds/deployment

To use this Beta, you must run Eclipse with Java 8.

You can still target development for old Java versions though. Yes, you can still target your Java 1.4 projects :)

We are doing this because certain components of Eclipse Mars now require Java 8 (especially Sapphire) and according to our usage stats, Java 8 will have gained majority this year.

But we have not made JBoss Tools dependent on Java 8 yet, since we want to get feedback from users on whether requiring Java 8 will be a problem.

Let us know on our forum, or contact Red Hat support if this will be a problem for you to use it.

Installation

JBoss Developer Studio comes with everything pre-bundled in its installer. Simply download it from our JBoss Products page and run it like this:

java -jar jboss-devstudio-<installername>.jar

JBoss Tools or Bring-Your-Own-Eclipse (BYOE) JBoss Developer Studio require a bit more:

This release requires at least Eclipse 4.5 (Mars) but we recommend using the Eclipse 4.5 JEE Bundle since then you get most of the dependencies preinstalled. In case that page it not available check main eclipse download for the Mars release.

Once you have installed Eclipse, you can either find us on the Eclipse Marketplace under "JBoss Tools (Mars)" or "JBoss Developer Studio (Mars)".

For JBoss Tools, you can also use our update site directly if you are up for it.

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/mars/development/updates

Note: Integration Stack tooling will become available from JBoss Central at a later date.

What is new ?

The full details of what is new is available on this page. Some highlights below.

New Shiny Central

JBoss Central has now been updated to be faster to load, less overloaded and give access to any project example from developer.jboss.org.

Docker tooling

There is now tooling to connect to (multiple) Docker daemons which allows you to pull, build, start, stop, etc. Images and Containers.

The Docker tooling is technically part of Eclipse Mars, but we wanted to make it easily available to all JBoss Tools users, so we included it into our updatesite. In future releases, we will add some specific JBoss Tools integrations for our server adapters and OpenShift - but for now, what is included are the vanilla Eclipse Mars Docker tools.

Visual Java EE 7 Batch

We’ve added a visual diagram editor for Java EE 7 Batch tooling. Allowing you to visualize and edit your batch flow:

Big thanks to Tomáš Milata who worked on this for his thesis and contributed the foundation for this functionality!

Below is a video of the highlights of the feature set:

OpenShift 3

OpenShift 3 now works with OAuth logins as well as basic authentication and there is now support for creating applications from OpenShift/Kubernetes templates.

Port Monitoring

JBoss server adapters now support port monitoring, allowing you to trace and inspect requests made to a server.

Experimental LaunchBar

The Eclipse CDT project created a new feature called the LaunchBar, allowing to easily run launch configurations. We’ve added experimental support for WTP server adapters (like JBoss server adapters) making them as easy to run as a Java app. Details here.

Next steps

Let us know what you like/hate about the release and if you find issues, please open a ticket at our issue tracker.

Going from Beta1 to Beta2, we are focusing on reported issues and going for improving Docker, OpenShift, JavaScript and JavaEE related features.

Hope you enjoy it and remember…

Have fun!

The Fuse team are looking for an Eclipse Developer to primarily work on JBoss Tools Fuse tooling.

769fcbdf1939cbdf43002be6e4330e9c.936x690x1

If you are interested read the job description and apply.

If you are interested in hearing more ping me on mail or find me at EclipseCon France next week!

I’m happy to report that a few days ago the final paperwork around Red Hat upgrading their membership to Strategic Developer at Eclipse was completed and now announced at Eclipse.org.

What does this mean ?

Strategic Members are organizations that view Eclipse as a strategic platform and are investing developer and other resources to further develop Eclipse Foundation technologies. Strategic Developers commit to assign at least eight developers full time to develop Eclipse technology, lead Eclipse projects and contribute annual dues up to 250.000 $.

At Red Hat we already have more than eight developers doing development Eclipse technology, both at and around the base Eclipse distribution.

We are leading multiple Eclipse projects:

m2e-wtp
JavaScript Development Tools (JSDT)
vert.x
Linux Tools
Thym
BPMN2
BPEL
SWTBot

.and contributing to many more.

This work is used in our JBoss Tools project and two products: JBoss Developer Studio (Middleware) and Red Hat Developer Toolset (Linux Platform).

By upgrading to Strategic Developer we are confirming our continued support and commitement of resources to Eclipse, but also increasing our funding to be $250.000 annually.

Red Hat have an interest in Eclipse Foundation continues to thrive, and that its flagship, the Eclipse IDE and other opensource development tools and runtimes continues to evolve and improve.

Stepping down and up from the board

This announcement also means I’ll have to step down from the board as solutions member representative, but I’ll be joining again as Red Hat’s representative for their newly aquired Strategic Developer position.

I’m happy to have served and I’m looking forward to see which other solutions member will come join in on the board and bring Eclipse Foundation forward.

What next ?

We’ve been contributing and continue to help making Eclipse Mars a great release, together with the rest of the community. We are especially working on fixing GTK/SWT on Linux, making Docker support and looking at improving the Java Script Development tools. The latter I did a presentation at EclipseCon which provide some of ideas what we are working on.

By becoming strategic developer we also plan to be involved more in how Eclipse IP and Development process works and evolves. Something that become more important to make more effective for fast moving projects to feel better at home at Eclipse.

On top of that Eclipse have a lot of other areas going on which Red Hat are keeping our eye on - especially in the area of web IDE’s and Internet-of-things.

If you are interested in hearing more about this or have a suggestion please feel free to contact me by mail or leave a comment below!

Let’s Have fun!,

Alpha 2 build for Eclipse Mars M6 is now available at Alpha2 download.

Installation

This version of JBoss Tools targets Eclipse Mars 4.5 (M6).

We recommend using the Eclipse 4.5 JEE Bundle since then you get most of the dependencies preinstalled.

Once you have installed Eclipse, you use our update site directly:

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/mars/development/updates/core/

Note: Marketplace entry and Integration Stack tooling will become available from JBoss Central at a later date.

What is new ?

Easy Import/Open of projects

We have included our incubation project at Eclipse that makes importing and opening of projects much easier than default Eclipse. No longer do you need to know or guess at which of many import wizards are the right one. With this you just use File Import Project from Folder, point it to a folder and it will auto-detect the type of project, imports ann configure it as best as it can.

Once started it will recursively scan the selected folder and report which directories it found.

We included this incubation feature to get early feedback - please do give it a try and let us know if it works great or if we detected some projects "badly".

OpenShft v3

Our OpenShift integration now allow you to connect to OpenShift 3 in addition to the existing OpenShift 2 support.

Once connected you can browse the OpenShift/Kubernetes data for your application/projects.

Note: OpenShift v3 is not available from openshift.com to try at this point in time. If you want to try use it you can follow the instructions at OpenShift Origin sample app.

Java EE 7 Batch wizards, content assist, validation and refactoring

In Alpha 1 we introduced support for Java EE 7 batch specification and now extending this support with a wizard, content assist, linked navigation, searching and refactoring of Batch elements.

Details are in Batch Tools New and Noteworthy.

WildFly 9

We’ve added native WildFly 9 runtime detection and server support. You no longer need to use the WildFly 8 adapter and detection will work correctly now.

Content assist for AngularJS Expressions

When editing AngularJS single-page html (not templates) the html editor now communicates with the preview to provide content assist for angularjs expressions.

Custom HTML Tag validation

There is now a quickfix for marking custom HTML5 elements to be ignored in validation.

Note: this is not specific to JBoss Tools, it is built into Eclipse M6

Next steps

With Alpha2 out we are heading towards a Beta1.

In Beta1 we are targeting including:

OpenShift v3 support for templates
Docker Tooling
Better JavaScript content assist
Making project imports in Eclipse even simpler
And more…

As always, ask/suggest away and we’ll keep you posted!

Have fun!

Happy to announce JBoss Tools 4.2.3 and Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio 8.1 for Eclipse Luna are finally available.

Installation

JBoss Developer Studio comes with everything pre-bundled in its installer. Simply download it and install it like this:

java -jar jboss-devstudio-{version}-installer-{standalone|eap}.jar

If you have JBoss Developer Studio 8.0.0.GA already installed, just run:

Help > Check for updates

JBoss Tools or JBoss Developer Studio Bring-Your-Own-Eclipse (BYOE) requires a bit more:

This release requires at least Eclipse 4.4 (Luna) but we recommend using the Eclipse Luna SR2 Java EE Bundle since then you get most of the dependencies preinstalled with Java EE Bundle and SR2 release includes some critical fixes.

Once you have installed Eclipse, you can either find us on Eclipse Marketplace under "JBoss Tools (Luna)" or "JBoss Developer Studio (Luna)".

For JBoss Tools you can also use our update site directly if you are up for it.

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/luna/

What is New?

This release is update for Eclipse Luna and also includes some new features which we would like to highlight. You can see everything in the What’s New section for this release.

Eclipse Luna SR2

This version of JBoss Tools targets Eclipse Luna SR2. More stability. Less false positive JavaScript errors. And many other fixed bugs.

JBoss Developer Studio also includes an important feature patch for Eclipse Web Tools 3.6.3. That patch fixes Eclipse freezes for some JavaScript files.

FeedHenry support

If you are a FeedHenry user we’ve now added support for easy importing and running of your FeedHenry Cordova applications.

New Wildfly Archetypes in JBoss Central

WildFly 8.2.0.GA archetypes are now available for the HTML5, JavaEE Web & EAR project wizards. They will be automatically enabled when you select a WildFly runtime in the project wizards.

IP6 Support Added for Server Tools

For JBoss 7 and Wildfly installations, using hostnames with an IPv6 format often failed to connect, show webpages, or even verify the server’s state. Several changes have made this work as expected. With updated wildfly jars, management commands will execute without issue. In addition, our tools will now automatically recognize host names in an IPv6 pattern, and update your launch configuration’s various launch arguments to ensure that the server starts properly and with all expected flags set.

Upgraded Forge 2 Runtime

The Forge 2 runtime was upgraded to 2.15.2.Final. See the full release notes here.

There is also an improvement in Forge wizards which now render notes below the inputs (where available):

HTML5 & JavaScript Editing Improvements

HTML validation in Eclipse Web Tools Luna has an annoying issue with custom HTML5 tags. It warns about any HTML tag name that is not mentioned in the HTML specification. We contributed a patch to Eclipse Mars which allows to disable those warnings for any particular tag name (or a tag name mask, e.g. <ion-*>). Though this was fixed in Eclipse Mars only we back ported this useful feature to JBoss Tools 4.2.3 which is based on Eclipse Luna SR2:

JavaSript file validation now respects ECMA5 keywords.

Tern.java and AngularJS Eclipse 0.8.2

Tern.java and AngularJS Eclipse (available via JBoss Central - Early Access) has been upgraded to 0.8.2 version.

There is a bunch of new features which were introduced in 0.8.0 releases:

0.8.2 releases also include bug fixes for some critical issues which caused Eclipse to freeze.

Multiple Browser Engine Support on Linux in Visual Editor

On Linux Visual Page Editor can be opened in HTML5 mode for HTML files, where all HTML5 features are supported. Visual Page editor mode can be changed with dialog, which appears during HTML file opening or in Visual Page Editor Preferences.

Deprecation of Visual Editor for JSF Pages

Currently JBoss Tools and JBoss Developer Studio have some problems with supporting both HTML5 Visual Preview and JSF Visual Editor. It’s related to the outdated XULRunner which is used in JBoss Tools to provide visual editing feature for JSF pages. It has very limited HTML5 support and conflicts with other browsers which may be used for HTML5 preview. It’s time now to deprecate the visual part of XHTML and JSP Page editor. JBoss Developer Studio 8.1 and JBoss Tools 4.2.3 still include JSF Visual Editor but it will be removed in future releases.

This deprecation is only about the visual part of the XHTML/JSP Editor (Visual/Source and Preview tabs). The existing content assist, code navigation, wizards etc. related to JSF will still be present in the source editor.

What is Next

We are now focusing on JBoss Developer Studio 9 and JBoss Tools 4.3 for Eclipse Mars. Alpha1 is already available and we are working on upcoming Alpha2.

Enjoy!

Note: JBoss Tools 4.2.3 and JBoss Developer Studio 8.1.0 will become available in Marketplace only for Final releases at early April

What is New?

We are getting close to the final release. So, we focused on bug fixing in this release.

Upgraded Forge 2 Runtime

Besides bug fixes, the Forge 2 runtime was upgraded to 2.15.1.Final. See the release notes here.

There is also an improvement in Forge wizards which now render notes below the inputs (where available):

It’s worth mentioning that the Forge 2.15.1 release has an annoying bug which prevents addons creation. The upcoming JBoss Developer Studio 8.1.0.Final will include the fixed Forge 2.15.2.Final (has been released today).

What is Next?

The next stop is JBoss Tools 4.2.3.Final and JBoss Developer Studio 8.1.0.Final which are going to be released in two weeks.

Enjoy!

BPMN2 Modeler

The Graphiti framework dependency was changed to require only 0.11. This is now aligned with the same version that is shipped with Eclipse Luna.
BPMN 2.0 Model validation has been reworked to allow extension plug-ins to override specific model element constraints. See Bug 427470 for details.
Double-click handling in the Outline and Problems views has been improved: a double-click on a node in the Outline view, or an error item in the Problems view will now display the Property sheet for the associated model object to allow immediate editing of the object.
The editor now performs a Live validation just before saving a file, and cancels the save process if the model is found to be corrupt (invalid ID string, duplicate IDs, etc.) This prevents the model file from being corrupted.
A new User Preference has been added to the Editor Behavior preference page, which allows Text fields to be limited to a maximum length. The default is 255 characters. Note that Multiline text boxes, such as those used for Documentation and Scripts, are not subject to this limit.

What is New?

This release is update for Eclipse Luna and also includes some new features which we would like to highlight. You can see everything in the What’s New section for this release.

Eclipse Luna SR2

This version of JBoss Tools targets Eclipse Luna SR2. More stability. Less false positive JavaScript errors. And many other fixed bugs.

FeedHenry support

If you are a FeedHenry user we’ve now added support for easy importing and running of your FeedHenry Cordova applications.

New Wildfly Archetypes in JBoss Central

WildFly 8.2.0.GA archetypes are now available for the HTML5, JavaEE Web & EAR project wizards. They will be automatically enabled when you select a WildFly runtime in the project wizards.

HTML5 & JavaScript Editing Improvements

JavaSript file validation now respects ECMA5 keywords.

Tern.java and AngularJS Eclipse 0.8.2

Tern.java and AngularJS Eclipse (available via JBoss Central - Early Access) has been upgraded to the latest 0.8.2 version.

There is a bunch of new features which were introduced in 0.8.0 releases:

0.8.2 releases also include bug fixes for some critical issues which caused Eclipse to freeze.

Multiple Browser Engine Support on Linux in Visual Editor

IP6 Support Added for Server Tools

What’s Next?

We are going to release a candidate release for JBoss Tools 4.2.3 and JBoss Developer Studio 8.1.0 soon, and we are also working on the next Alpha release for Eclipse Mars.
