Re: [ajug-members]: Eclipse releases

[Sudarshan Raghavan <bali_n@yahoo.com>]

Pervaz,

 

The Mx drops are interim "beta" releases of Eclipse3.0, which is due out in June. Like any other beta software, you can expect to find some rough edges (or even significant bugs) in these drops. If you are getting started with Eclipse, the 2.1.3 release is what I would recommend. You can download the latest drop once you get your hands dirty. IBM Websphere Studio App Developer (5.1) is built on Eclipse 2.1 and you should be looking at 2.1 if you are planning to develop WSAD compliant plugins.

 

Hope this helps ...
