Cytoscape 3 Development on Eclipse 3.6 Helios and Other New Tools
(This page is under construction!)
Introduction
During the last 6 month, lots of things happened in OSGi and Maven world. Major news are:
Maven 3 is now in beta version and major IDEs (Eclipse and NetBeans) use snapshot version of Maven 3 as their default maven executable.
- Spring DM's migration to Eclipse Foundation as Gemini Blueprint
- Spring Framework version 3 is now available as production release
This is a overview of new tools/technologies I found in my research on this topic.
Discussion Items for Cy3 Development Tools

- Gemini Blueprint (almost identical to Spring DM 2.x) or Spring DM 1.x
- Maven 2 or 3 (3 should be backward compatible)
