This is outstanding. It has always been problematic to get plug-ins to work together. Now you have done the job for us. And the individual plug-in installers are great. This will help me get my developers who are not that familiar with Eclipse up and running rapidly/
I have been using Easy eclipse server java distro for a while now and wanted to thank you for getting the essential plugins compatible versions built-in into the distro. It really made my life easier and a convert to eclipse IDE for my Java EE development from netbeans. When i started out, netbeans seemed more intuitive with regard to what needed to be installed to get started rapidly with J2EE development but having found your distro, i have been using eclipse now for my learning of EJB 3.0 with Jboss IDE plugin and JSF with Amateras IDE.
Subclipse is crap. Please, use Subversive instead ! It is bug-free and works great !
Opinions defer on this. We’ve found Subclipse quite comparable to Subversive; we think that it is a little more mature at this stage. We will swich if Subversive become clearly better. We’d love a fair, detailed evaluation…
The synchronize function of Subsversive is clearly _not_ bug free.
True. Can you be more specific?
tptp performance , profiler & testing tool , i am not able to configure it .
can any one help me . i am not seeing an profile in any menu .
Sure, you installed the server java distro and then the tptp plugin? On which OS?
Actually, if you look at http://www.easyeclipse.org/site/plugins/eclipse-tptp.html there is a requirements section that says:
“Requirements and limitations
* This plugin requires a distribution of EasyEclipse containing:
o Eclipse Java Development Tools
o Plugin Development Environment”
So you would need to install the Plugin Development Environment first from here. It is not part of Server java.

Why have you choose to not base your distro on Callisto ?
Will the next easyEclipse release be based on Europa ?
Ok, sorry your present distro is based on Callisto (but you have not included all the optional callisto projects).
But my second question is still valid
EasyEclipse’s goal is to make Eclipse easy to use, so we think it’s preferable to have more stability, even at the expense of features. We don’t want beginners to hit undocumented, regressions bugs in a beta (Philippe encountered such a bug yesterday on 3.3 M4, so they exist). Now, we’re playing with 3.3 because we’re eager that it ships !
Regarding Callisto: I think that we are shipping all the base Callisto project, see http://easyeclipse.org/site/home/callisto.html , but it was a long time and I have forgotten
.
We may not include the optional Callisto projects, true, based on their userbase (we didn’t ship projects that are not likely to be used widely) and also based on their maturity (again, try not to ship unstable software).
trac-mylar would be a good addition.
I love that one too. You guys use Trac?
Could you enter a feature request on Sourceforge?
I tried this distribution. It really works fine. But I think it would be great if you would include the Exadel Studio and libraries into this package. These are free now, read .
Exadel would be a great addition, but for now it is free but not yet open source.
We would have to wait until this summer based on what I read.
El easyeclipse server no funfiona en linux de 64 byte
trac-mylar pleasse svp bitte !! great work guys!
Actually it is in the works, already in CVS, and will be released very soon.
There is a bug with EasyEclipse Server Java and i don’t know whether there are the same ones with other distributtions.
I’m a chinese user so I need print chinese in console. But the texts in chinese are clobber. The font of “Java Editor Text Font (…)” is not setted up correctly for the portion of chinese_gb2312. It’s “courior new” defaultly which doesn’t support chinese charactors.
In Eclipse it’s right setted up. It means that chinese charators has chinese fonts.
The problem is described at http://blog.csdn.net/yethyeth/archive/2007/05/13/1607112.aspx.
I would be great if this distribution includes facelets support out of the box.
And some Jboss Seam plugins.
That would make this distro rock!
There is server IBM Websphere v6 .. but I would want the version 5.1.
That’s posible?
Thank you
Will you release EasyEclipse Server Java 1.3 based on “Europa for JEE” distro or not ?
Of course we will. As soon as we find the time to do it. Also, some plugins taht we ship in this distro, aren’t working yet on Eclipse 3.3. We’ve been waiting a little in the hope that we wouldn’t have to redo it once they ship. As a rule, we put more emphasis on stability than on features… but I understand you impatience
Where are the MD5 or SHA files for file/download integrity check?
They are in this folder. You can construct the URL yourself: “http://easyeclipse.org/md5/” + downloadedfilename + “.MD5″
I hope the new version of “EasyEclipse Server Edition”-1.3.0 has a better web page (HTML/JSP) editor UI.
And when the release 1.3.0 is available.
I wonder whether the BIRT will be considered to be included in the release 1.3.0. I hope it can be included.
Hi François,
