Eclipse IDE

Analysis as a Service Using OSLC and the Eclipse Arrowhead IoT Framework

Jan Fiedor (Brno University of Technology)
Ondrej Vasicek (Brno University of Technology)

With the increasing complexity of projects, many users and teams rely on various kinds of analyses to check if their work (code, models, requirements, etc.) is correct. While various analyses are often performed as part of the CI/CD pipelines, many users would prefer to perform them before submitting (publishing) their work. Yet many analysis tools needs to be installed, configured, and started externally, which can be difficult for many users, especially when they are not proficient with the tools.

What Eclipse IDE must learn from other IDEs to survive?

Karsten Thoms (Karakun AG)

Let’s face the truth: The Eclipse IDE is not the first choice for developers. Especially in the field of Java and Web Development, other IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA, VS Code or Gitpod are attracting most new users. Even worse, more and more Eclipse users move away.

Being an Eclipse user for decades meanwhile I have learned to be productive with the Eclipse IDE, and still like it. But in the recent past, my projects required me to use other IDEs as well. And yes, the grass is green on the other side.

So what makes those IDEs more attractive? Why do some developers hate Eclipse IDE and love others? Where does the Eclipse IDE need to improve and invest to be competitive in the future? Let’s find some answers by showing where the Eclipse Platform can learn from.

Eclipse Tips & Tricks

Lakshmi P Shanmugam (IBM)

The Eclipse IDE celebrated it's 20th anniversary last year. With such a long history of releases, numerous plug-ins & extensions and a huge developer community, it's still one of the most popular IDEs for developers working across multiple domains and languages. Eclipse is especially popular as a Java IDE and has been extended by plugins to support numerous other languages.

The Eclipse IDE is packed with loads of powerful features and capabilities and provides the developers a robust integrated environment for developing, running and debugging applications. With a version of IDE released every quarter, more and more new features and improvements are added that enable it’s users to be more productive in their day to day work.

More often than not the users are unaware of all the capabilities and hence are unable to take full advantage of them. The aim of the session is to highlight the powerful capabilities, share the valuable tips & tricks and enable developers to utilize the IDE to its full potential.

The session will also highlight the useful new and noteworthy features added in the releases in the past year and also the upcoming features in 4.25 release.

Structured Concurrency with Project Loom

Sarika Sinha (IBM)

One of Java's most important contributions when it was first released, over twenty years ago, was the easy access to threads and synchronization primitives.
The Java threads are currently implemented as OS kernel threads which is insufficient  for meeting modern demands, and wasteful in computing resources that are particularly valuable in the cloud. Project Loom will introduce fibers (virtual threads) as lightweight, efficient threads managed by the Java Virtual Machine, that let developers use the same simple abstraction but with better performance and lower footprint.

What’s New in the Eclipse Platform Project

Karsten Thoms (Karakun AG)

This session takes a look back on the past year and 4 releases of the Eclipse Platform. I will give some insights on the work being done on the platform projects. Besides demonstrating some added features I will take a look behind the scenes:

- Who is currently involved in the development of the Platform?
- How active is the user and contributor community involved?
- Which improvements have been made in regards to performance and usability?

The Eclipse IDE is one of the most popular IDEs releasing successfully every quarter. It comes packed with a lot of powerful features and capabilities that enable the users to be more productive in their day to day work. With the faster release cadence and active community contributions many new features are added in every release. But, we often come across bugs and posts from users asking for features that exist in the Eclipse IDE already for many releases or have been added recently.
