Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse 11g aims to help accelerate Java development tasks. Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse is a free set of Eclipse-based plug-ins that enables developers to build Java EE and Web Services applications for the Oracle Fusion Middleware platform where Eclipse is the preferred Integrated Development Environment (IDE).

The new release extends support for the open source built GlassFish Server and WebLogic Server for building and deploying enterprise Java EE applications - both of which sit as components of Oracle Fusion Middleware.

The Oracle GlassFish Server Tools featured in the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse 11g provide full server support for Oracle GlassFish Server, enabling server configuration, deployment, and debugging for Eclipse projects.

In regards to the Oracle WebLogic Server, users will get a taste of its JDBC deployment descriptor editor, which provides a graphical editor for JDBC DataSource configuration that includes wizards, schema validation, and integrated context sensitive help. Plus, the Web Services annotations editor offers configuration and data binding wizards for JAXWS annotations editing for regularly used JAXWS properties.

Support is also extended to Eclipse 3.6 and essential Java Platform Enterprise Edition (Java EE) 6 tools like JSF 2.0 tools. Additionally, new Java EE 6 standards such as Servlet 3.0, EJB 3.1, and JPA 2.0 are supported.

Other key features include:

  • Oracle Coherence tools: enable Eclipse users to develop, run, and debug against Oracle Coherence, a data management and caching service for replicated, distributed, or partitioned data

  • WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) features: Jython/Python IDE for WLST, WLST templates, Oracle WebLogic MBean explorer, an integrated WLST console, and WLST integrated help

  • Oracle WebLogic Server JDBC deployment descriptor editor: provides a graphical editor for JDBC DataSource configuration that includes wizards, schema validation, and integrated context sensitive help.

  • Oracle WebLogic Server Web Services annotations editor: offers configuration and data binding wizards for JAXWS annotations editing for regularly used JAXWS properties.
