It seems Oracle has announced that it will help develop an EJB3 compliant ORM mapping tool for Eclipse. We’re using their TopLink mapping workbench today, and having a similar tool inside Eclipse would be a great asset to us. It really makes mapping easy, and could save lots of time. I’ll be looking forward to this.
Matt Raible has some details about the Spring IDE plugin for Eclipse beeing updated and moved to a new site. Check out the link here.
Keith Donald has a quick writeup on PR2 of Spring Web Flow here. I didn’t really see the need for these web flow extensions earlier, but after completing a major web project I really see the need for them. I started setting up a Spring/Hibernate project yesterday for testing out Hibernate3 and Spring Web Flow. I need to get up to speed on both of them, I’m pretty convinced they both can save me lots of grief on future projects.
