At the EclipseCon conference, Mike Milinkovich, Eclipse’s executive director, unveiled a few details about the summer release of Eclipse SDK 4.0 (e4). He said the new platform will offer a more services-oriented approach to application development.
Milinkovich added, “They’ve really refined what the Eclipse platform does down to what [builders] call the 20 things, the 20 key services that are being provided by the platform.”
Prior to the e4 release, about 30 other Eclipse technology improvements will be released as “Helios” in June.
