The automatic source lookup feature is now capable of fixing bad source attachements, even for Maven enabled projects. If the attached source doesn’t exist (ex. you wiped out your maven local repository) or doesn’t contain the right source files, it will try to download the proper source. This is especially handy when working on PDE plugins, when PDE automatically attaches the binary jar as a source to itself, even when it doesn’t contain any sources.

When creating applications you want to know about the credentials that OpenShift initially set for you. This is especially helpful and required when you create a jenkins where you get it’s url and username/password presented. With CR1 we now present you what OpenShift did for you if there’s anything to be noticed for any type of application and/or cartridge.
