MyEclipse-Callisto Integration
|
MyEclipse 5.0 is built on top of the Eclipse 3.2 SDK and the
Callisto platform
projects. Callisto is a coordinated release of 10 Eclipse
projects. By building upon Callisto, MyEclipse 5.0 now provides
convenient update access to new tools and frameworks such as: C++
tools, the BIRT reporting framework and the Visual Editor
framework.
|
One of the key benefits of adopting MyEclipse is that
it was the first product to integrate the Web Tool Platform (WTP)
almost 2 years ago. Since then MyEclipse has introduced hundreds
of bug fixes and enhancements to the initial WTP platform. Over time WTP has undergone a major rearchitecture and
revision that is not backward compatible with the version MyEclipse adopted. Many
of the MyEclipse WTP revisions and enhancements are now becoming available in the
WTP 1.5. release. Therefore MyEclipse 5.0 has merged back onto
the WTP 1.5+ branch and will maintain compatibility with it in all future releases. |

MyEclipse Updates
|
The Eclipse Update Facility is preconfigured to recognize MyEclipse updates, Eclipse project updates and Callisto platform plugins.
