It’s that time of the year again… old making way for the new :smile:
As you probably remember, June is the time-frame when a newer version of Eclipse is added to the fold and the older one is dropped from SAP support. Keeping the same tradition, Eclipse Kepler will be out of support from SAP NetWeaver Cloud by end of June 2015. This also means that Eclipse Luna will be added to the list of supported Eclipse versions for our SAP Development Tools for Eclipse.
So what are the implications for SAP Mobile Platform Tools based on Eclipse Kepler?
We plan to release the next version of our tools compatible with Eclipse Luna in early July 2015. This will ensure business continuity for developers without having to wait long after Kepler support has ended. We have come a long way since releasing the 1st version of SAP Mobile Platform Tools in July 2014.
In 2015 alone we have added the following features to this toolset:
- Jan 2015
- Support for REST “Read” operation. “Query” was already supported
- Apr 2015
- Support for REST “Create”, “Update” and “Delete”. With this we now cover the entire CRUDQ stack
- Release of Ogee as open source component to Apache foundation and consuming
- Debugging support for scripts
- July 2015
So please stay tuned for this release on SAP Development Tools for Eclipse page, and as always keep your feedback flowing :smile:
Thank you!
