The HQL Editor and Criteria Editor now work with Spring 2 projects. For more information, see the Hibernate section.
Hibernate Tools Beta-8 Compatibility:
MyEclipse 5.5 Milestone-1 OR reverse-engineering tools are now compatible with JBoss Hibernate Tools (beta-8). A key distinction is that MyEclipse code generation modules use the Velocity template engine.
New Criteria Editor:
Similar to the HQL Editor, you can now launch the criteria editor for any configured Hibernate project. The Criteria Editor also works with Spring configurations in Hibernate + Spring projects.
HQL Editor:
The HQL Editor now has better auto-completion support and customizable syntax highlighting.
Reverse Engineering Enhancements:
The reverse engineering process now includes the following additional features:
- Specify a custom reverse engineering strategy.
- Many-to-many relationship detection and code generation.

Classes and Interfaces can now be copied from one class diagram to another.
Web Services
XFire 1.2.4
MyEclipse Web Services has been upgraded to the latest version of the XFire Web Service framework, version 1.2.4.? XFire 1.2.4 incorporates several new features, enhancements and fixes over the 1.2.2 version shipped in the MyEclipse 5.1.0 release. See the XFire 1.2.4 release notes for a full listing of the changes. The framework upgrade includes all 1.2.4 libraries. Existing Web Service projects will be automatically upgraded to use the new libraries.
WSDL Validation Enhancements:
WSDL files used by the Top-Down Service Wizard and the New Web Service Client wizard are now validated before the code generation process. WSDL validity and WS-I compliance are checked, giving you the opportunity to correct any mistakes before generating code.
Profile compliance and validation settings for validation of WSDL files in the WSDL editor can be made at both workspace and project levels.
All-in-one Installer Enhancements
The MyEclipse 5.5 M1 All-In-One installer has been improved by reducing its download footprint size by over 50%.

The All-in-One installer now includes the ability to registry file associations that are supported by the MyEclipse Snaps.
File View
File View is a new view that provides Windows File Explorer style of browsing and visibility of file system resources within a workspace and external to a workspace. The ability to view and create non-workspace folders and files is a key advantage that this view has over the Navigator view. Drag-n-Drop, copy, paste and delete operations are supported by this view.
Use the View menu for additional FileView actions.
Context menu actions are available for files and folders.
New Web Projects include start page
The New Web Project Wizard now creates a start page, e.g., index.jsp, during the project creation process.
MyEclipse Innovations
The innovation and application of Eclipse technology is Genuitec's sole business.?With well over?2 million downloads,? MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench (now with Web Services support) has grown to be the most popular and successful Eclipse-based JEE IDE. Our history of blending the best of open source with commercial-grade developed tools has created a long chain of Eclipse technology innovation that includes:
MyEclipse 5.5M1 With SNAPs is Now Available!
What is a SNAP?
SNAPs are part of the expanding MyEclipse Fusion Technology suite. SNAPs allow developers to accomplish focused tasks without the weight of an entire IDE. SNAPs can also be used with any other development tool, and therefore free users from the vendor lock-in that is commonly associated with development environments. The current SNAPs available are the Visual HTML/Web Designer, XML Editor, Database Explorer, and Image Editor (including new screen capture capabilities). The suite of SNAPs and other Fusion Technologies will be growing in upcoming releases. A demo of one of our SNAPs in action may be found here.

***If you have not yet upgraded Eclipse to 3.2.1, the MyEclipse "All-in-One Installer" will bring your system up to speed in all MyEclipse 5.5-necessary platforms, including Eclipse 3.2.1, MyEclipse 5.5M1, SNAPs and Java 5 JRE in one easy install. The installer is available in the downloads section.
***Note: the All-in-One Installer is currently available for Windows users only. Mac and Linux users will need to install Eclipse 3.2.1 and then install MyEclipse 5.5M1.
