"Eclipse Web Tools Platform Project" calienta motores.

Ya se ha hecho pýblica la propuesta de proyecto en Eclipse.org para crear una infraestructura que permita el desarrollo de herramientas web sobre Eclipse. Ahora hay un plazo de 30 dýas para que la comunidad lo revise y una vez haya pasado dicho plazo el comitý se reune para arrancar.



Por tanto, parece que si todo va bien, en Junio tendremos el arranque y las primeras aportaciones.



Las aportaciones anunciadas por parte de IBM a travýs de Arthur Ryman (uno de los arquitectos de WebSphere Studio) son:

1. Milestone 1 provides the ability to create, deploy and debug servlet based Web applications in Tomcat. This milestone includes the Server tools and supports the ability to add new application servers, create Web projects, create servlets, and run servlets in normal or debug mode. The output of the servlet can be displayed in an imbedded Web browser and the HTTP traffic and be viewed using the TCP/IP montior.
   
   





2. Milestone 2 adds JSP support. This milestone includes the HTML/JSP source editor, snippets view, and JSP creation wizard. Developers can debug JSP source and step into the Java source of classes invoked by the JSP. The Structured Source Editor will be included in this milestone to support editing of HTML, CSS, XSD, JSP, etc. Elements of the Web services tools such as the Web Service and WSDL Explorers will be included.
   
   





3. Milestone 3 adds most of the remaining Web services tools. Servlet container based Web services in Axis are supported. The XSD and WSDL editors and associated WSDL and UDDI tools are included. The WS-I test tools are integrated with the WSDL validator and TCP/IP monitor.
   
   





4. Milestone 4 adds the EJB and database access tools. EJB and Enterprise Application modules are supported. Users can create, deploy, and debug Session and Entity EJBs. Session EJB based Web services are now supported.
