Eclipse 3.3 M6 has been released.
Major features
- Eclipse now runs on Vista (Windows Presentation Foundation or the WPF).
- SWT is now exploiting more of the native features of the Vista platform.
The Platform also has a new look. Other new features include:
- Improved min/max workflow
- Help will now display a series of links called breadcrumbs at the top of each document that appears in the table of contents, allowing for easier navigation and more contextual information
- Jetty-based implementation of the OSGi HTTP service added to the Platform SDK along with the bundles that provide JSP and extension registry support
- PDE now supports plug-in refactoring by providing the ability to rename a plug-in ID and update all references to it in downstream plug-ins
- PDE also provides three templates (Interactive, Browser, Extensible) for creating custom splash screens, complete with code, images and XML mark-up
The release has also added new features to the JDT, including improved null check detection, workspace relative paths for Javadoc location and more.
