Whats New in Web Tools 1.0 and 1.5 | © 2006 by IBM and Oracle; made available under the EPL v1.0 2 Abstract The Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) Project extends Eclipse into the domain of Java Web application development. WTP includes tools for controlling J2EE application servers, and for developing Web sites and services based on Web and J2EE standards. Supported technologies include HTML, CSS, JavaScript, XML, XSD, WSDL, WS-I, servlets, JSP, and EJB. The recent WTP 1.0 release added platform APIs. The next release, WTP 1.5, which will be part of the Eclipse 3.2 Callisto release, adds support for JSF and EJB 3.0 which are part of Java 5 EE. This talks gives an overview of the project and highlights the enhancements since WTP 0.7. A demonstration of the latest features is included.
