The framework for agile development of user interfaces with Eclipse RCP. Agile RCP is a Presenter First framework for RCP making use of OSGi services and dependency injection delivered by Spring Dynamic Modules leading to fully unit-testable UIs.
Fast Code is a free eclipse plugin designed to help write code faster in a spring based applications. But it can be configured to work with many other kinds of applications as well.
Description
In a typical multi tiered application, there are lot of similar code. E.g in a struts application with spring hibernate backend, you have to create FooAction, FooService and FooDAO for every domain object Foo. Besides this, there will be quite a few configuration files. Typing them all manually takes time, gives you carpal tunnel, and is error prone.
To use this plugin, please download the jar file from the download link above. Once downloaded, put it in the plugins folder of your eclipse installation directory and restart eclipse.
ven though Web 2.0 and rich Internet applications (RIAs) are all the rage these days, building a rich Web front end for your stakeholders is not the answer when thick-client functionality is what you really need. I stated as much in my previous article, "Building a Java App Server Foundation for Thick-Client Deployment," which showed how to leverage a traditional Java Web server architecture to easily deploy thick clients.
The Eclipse Persistence Services Project (EclipseLink) project's goal is to provide a complete persistence framework that is both comprehensive and universal. It will run in any Java environment and read and write objects to virtually any type of data source, including relational databases, XML, or EIS systems. EclipseLink will focus on providing leading edge support, including advanced feature extensions, for the dominant persistence standards for each target data source; Java Persistence API (JPA) for relational databases, Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB) for XML, J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) for EIS and other types of legacy systems, and Service Data Objects (SDO).

"Some weeks ago I wrote a custom JSP tag for a Spring project I am currently working on. Inside the tag I wanted to use a Spring bean. Soon I realized that this case had to be handled a bit different because the tag is instantiated by the application server and not from the Spring context. Therefore the simple standard injection mechanism did not work."
The XAware project provides real time data integration with a service-oriented flavor. XAware makes other tools and frameworks much more productive by hiding data complexity behind "XML views". XML views span any number of data sources, and can read data, write data, or transfer data between sets of sources, all within a distributed transaction.
