For those MyEclipse users who are currently standardized on Eclipse Europa (3.3)... you are not forgotten. We are proud to announce MyEclipse 6.6.
This release includes the full implementation of Maven 2 for Eclipse tools, which gives users the choice to use Maven in its native, “raw” format, or choose to utilize the fully-integrated Maven4MyEclipse solution. This flexibility, along with other upgrades, provides users a wide range of options to fully manage application life cycles. Also included in 6.6 are updates providing maximum choice for JPA capabilities, including the addition of OpenJPA.
But why release for an "old" platform? As MyEclipse Product Manager Pete Crapatyean put it: “We understand that many MyEclipse users are still standardized on Eclipse Europa for ongoing projects. We're pleased to provide Europa legacy customers with upgrades that enhance their experience of MyEclipse, while not interfering with tool mandates or preferences.”
So there you have it. Standardized on Eclipse 3.3? MyEclipse 6.6 will fit the bill for what you need. And as always, if you're a current MyEclipse subscriber, you get this release at no charge. Take it for a free trial or download today!
