Official development Update site |
Previously we only had an update site on the sf.net site, but it was very unstable (apparently too high a load) and thus never really offically promoted. Now we have http://downloads.jboss.com/jbosside/updates/development which will be used as an update site for any new development. This update site also contains other JBoss Eclipse IDE plugins, currently: jBPM, AOP, EJB3 and the JBossIDE. |

Project specific Hibernate 3 settings |
We have added a "Hibernate Settings" project setting. When enabled and a proper Console configuration is selected the plugins can utilize it to provide more advanced support (like providing better defaults and completion on elements from the database). Note: the basic completions, including class, property and field names does not require enabling Hibernate 3 settings. They will work on any eclipse java project. |

Based on WTP |
From this release we base the XML and DTD handling on the Eclipse Web Tools project(WTP). Download and updatesite contains all the required parts of WTP, thus not necessary to download the complete WTP project to use the plugins. |

Provide cached DTD's |
The plugins provide cached DTD's to the WTP XML Catalog. This allow code completion to work without network access. To utilize it ensure you use the proper PUBLIC id's for your hibernate related xml files. |

|
Table name completion |
If "Hibernate Settings" project setting is enabled the plugin will be able to code complete on table names. Table names will be loaded lazily thus they will not appear instantly the first time you code complete on a table name, but after loading it should be instant. You can monitor the background job in the eclipse "Progress" view. |
