  • JSF/Primefaces
  • Spring Web Flow

Code Assistance with the Spring Annotator

Annotators are part of the code assistants available in the MyEclipse Spring IDE. Annotators support annotation-based development by helping developers understand what annotations are available and in what context the annotation should be used. Use the Spring Annotator  for Spring controllers, Spring services, components, and repositories.

Spring and Persistence Technology

Use the Spring framework along with JPA and Hibernate persistence technologies. Wizards make it easy to reverse engineer database table information, generating entity beans and  DAOs and Spring backed DAOs and transactions in Spring projects.  Powerful views allow you to easily create and edit persistence annotations. Work with SQL and popular database such as Oracle®, MySQL, PostgresQL, and SQL Server.

Easy Testing on a Variety of App Servers

Deploy to a range of Java EE compliant application servers such as WebSphere, Glassfish, WebLogic, Tomcat, JBoss and more. Debug and hot-sync projects, and customize deployment configurations. For super-quick testing from your Spring IDE, use the integrated MyEclipse Tomcat and Derby servers.
