LDSTech IDE
• Eclipse based IDE
• Preinstall many tools
– Maven
– Spring
– SVN
– Git
– Tomcat
• Plugin to simplify Tomcat Dev configuration
• Optimal Configuration Defaults
Oracle VM
• Oracle is the primary database in ICS
• Oracle XE is free version of Oracle
– Great for development
• Nobody wants Oracle on their workstation
– Background services
– Port issues
– Etc
• Currently provide Virtual Box VM Image
• Allows us to by pass redistribution issues
Stack Starter
• Stack Starter is a templating application
• Produces a preconfigured project:
– Fully functional
– Uses supported tools
– Can provides a simple demo
• The generated application is yours to own and
evolve
• Individual tools are still usable without Stack
Starter
Summary
• Java Stack team is a Java development support
group
– Including Community Development
• As a team we support many tools
• Starter tools
– LDSTech IDE
– Oracle VM
– Stack Starter
