URL: Eclipse downloads

Eclipse 3.2 milestone 2 (M2) is now available for download . Here's the direct link if the download page is not updated yet. This drop is in the process of being propagated to the various Eclipse mirror sites, which usually takes a day or so.

Goodies for IDE users include better support for working sets, content assist categories, new compiler diagnostics, improved performance, and more.

RCP developers are not left out though. Some highlights:

  • Tooltip text can be set on a table or tree column header using TableColumn / TreeColumn.setTooltipText().
  • A vertical coolbar can be created by using the SWT.VERTICAL style (see screenshot).
  • Annotation hovering and navigation have been pushed down from JDT Text to Platform Text and is now available in all text editors.
  • PDE now supports an option to create headless RCP applications, complete with a Hello World template.
  • It can also create bundles for non-Eclipse OSGi frameworks.

New and Noteworthy

Hello,

Since you mentioned RCP support I just would like to push for the importance of bug 49718. It is an RFE for support of the standard JavaBean feature to handle indexed properties.
