JavaRebel Boosting Eclipse Plugin Development

November 14th, 2007 by Toomas Römer

Update: the Eclipse support has made it to the final 1.0 release of JavaRebel and development snapshots are not needed to use JavaRebel for Eclipse plugin development.

JavaRebel’s latest development snapshot includes support for the Eclipse Platform. The speedup that we can see with JEE servers when using JavaRebel applies also to other containers. In this case it is Eclipse. Developers can launch their plugins and as they change the source code they can see the results without restarting the new Eclipse instance.

We’ve prepared a small screencast (~5 min) that shows JavaRebel in action speeding up Eclipse plugin development.

The Camtasia Studio video content presented here requires JavaScript to be enabled and the latest version of the Macromedia Flash Player. If you are you using a browser with JavaScript disabled please enable it now. Otherwise, please update your version of the free Flash Player by downloading here.

Configuring JavaRebel for Eclipse is as easy as adding VM arguments -noverify and -javaagent:path/to/javarebel.jar and launch as usual as a Eclipse Application Configuration.
