Some more usability gripes from users.
As in the last usability feedback we collected, one of the requests is for a bundled runtime. This is being tracked by https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=173923. Will WTP 2.0 address EE5 entity bean support? I know that Dali supports JPA, but it's not clear to me what the extent of our EJB support will be. Thanks, Jess Garms BEA Systems ________________________________ Some of this info might be not completely accurate, as I have not followed the latest developments at webtools. However, here are a few pointers: Eclipse Server tooling usability: http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/wtp-pmc/msg00969.html JSR88 support missing >From my point of view the server tooling is also strange because servers are handled like resources (create with the New menu), not like preferences. Other usability topics: There are threading issues with the structured source editors (xml, jsp, html, ...) that have been known since two years - it seems they are getting addressed right now. The structured source editors are quite memory heavy. Many of the new "state of the art" concepts in web development are not very well supported, e.g: - no code completion for expression language - no jee 1.5 support for entity beans Another area is the pre-integration with a server environment out of the box - making it much easier to run examples without getting exposed the details of server configuration. _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
