In MyEclipse Blue 8.6, you can create and launch application client projects for Java EE 5 applications running on WebSphere 7.

The EAR Libraries classpath container contains all modules in the associated EAR project, making all their classes referenceable by your application client project. The WebSphere 7.0 container contains required WebSphere libraries, directly referenced from your local WebSphere installation.

If required, use the Application Client property page to customize your client after project creation.

Use Run As > Application Client Project to launch your application client project.

Application client launch configurations can be further customized customized if required.

Note: MyEclipse Blue 8.6 only supports the development of WebSphere 7 application client projects for J2EE 1.5 enterprise applications with EJB 3 modules. Support for EJB 2.x as well as other WebSphere versions will be added in a subsequent release.

• Improved, more robust startup process with increased reliability in the deployment of complex applications.
• Ability to update WebSphere's status allowing MyEclipse to adapt to externally managed servers.

  

• WebSphere's EJBDeploy tool can now be turned off for application deployment when not required.
