The server adapters for JBoss AS, EAP and WildFly have been refactored to support…​

These improvements required significant changes in the server adapter core API and UI. The meat of the code is still the same - just split out to be more reusable and composable.

We would really like to hear from you if the UI is good, bad, better, worse; and in any case how we can make it even better. We’re obviously interesting in knowing whether these features do work for you.

You can see more in the Servers What’s New.

OpenShift has been offering support for custom defined cartridges - now OpenShift tools supports this natively too.

This means you can create or use an existing cartridge by choosing the "Code Anything" option for either Applications or Cartridges.

This allows you to, for example use a Cartridge like WildFly 8 or the recent OpenShift on JRebel experiment without leaving the IDE.

The Cordova runtime support is now extended to also support using locally downloaded runtimes. Making it possible to use custom builds or simply distributions that are not directly available from Cordova repositories.

There are also various other fixes which can be viewed at Aerogear What’s New.

p.s. we are contributing these tools to eclipse.org under Project Thym.

The Cordova Simulator also now understands the notion of multiple Cordova runtimes allowing you to test against multiple versions.

The Arquillian tooling (for now only available in JBoss Tools) added a Sapphire based editor for the arquillian.xml file format.

For now it is a simple structured editor but we plan on using it for experimenting with Sapphire to provide better XML oriented editors.

This Arquillian editor was based on ideas and initial contribution from Masao Kunii working for Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) - thank you!

Recent version of Forge 1 and 2 are now distributed with tools and especially the later one brings an interesting feature.

Forge 2 Connection Profiles now will consider Eclipse Database Tooling Platform (DTP) connections meaning you no longer have to configure your database settings in multiple places.

This feature is called connection profiles in Forge 2.

We have learned a lot from our last 3+ years usage tracking and continue to be amazed with how many nationalities, countries and operating system distributions the tools are used in - it has been and continue to be very informative and helpful in guiding our tooling support.

In Beta1 we have gone a step further into learning not only about how many starts JBoss Tools, but also now which features are being used.

In Beta1 we now collect info about which server types are used and which JBoss Central installs are being done to be able to see how much and how often these features are used.

We will use that in the future to decide new development and maintanence work - thus if you love a feature in JBoss Tools then please say yes to usage tracking and use the feature and we’ll notice.

Note: We are only collecting aggregated summaries of i.e. server types and installs - meaning we cannot use any of this info to identify you. It is truly anonymous usage statistics - we are not the NSA!

The previous release of the JBoss Developer Studio Integration Stack had a candidate release of Fuse Apache Camel Tooling. The support is now complete and ready to run with the Fuse Active MQ 6.1 release.

Fix release versions of BPMN2 Modeler, SwitchYard and Teiid Designer are also available in this release.
