Eclipse Helios

The new version of Eclipse is out!

Eclipse Helios

Here is a demo of the new Java features which is interesting to watch.

There are a lot of nice additions!

A couple things I have noticed so far:

  • Support for formatting Annotations correctly!
  • It has added additional out-of-the-box support for JavaScript.
  • I was able to creat a new JavaScript formatter!  I have been waiting for this feature so that our whole team can use the same formatting options like the Java formatter.
  • I would not recommend installing Aptana yet as it is not fully compatible with the new version of Eclipse.
  • I would recommend creating a new workspace if you previously installed Aptana.  Otherwise, you will get errors trying to find Aptana specific settings (as it is not installed).

This is going to sound a bit funny but I finally signed up for Stack Overflow to answer questions and to ask a question.  I realized that you cannot just vote peoples questions up or down, you first need to attempt to answer a question and then the person asking the question needs to vote your question as answered with 1 or higher.

The other day I went and attempted to answer a few questions and today some voted my question as answered!
