e(fx)clipse 1.0 released
The release
I'm happy to announce the 1.0 release of e(fx)clipse tooling and runtime. I've already introduced the most interesting new features in the last 2 weeks
- e(fx)clipse 1.0 - New Features - Generate JavaFX Properties accessors
- e(fx)clipse 1.0 – New Features - LayoutPanes can be controlled by CSS
- e(fx)clipse 1.0 – New Features – CSS Gradient Editor
- e(fx)clipse 1.0 – New Features - Drag and Drop for e4/JavaFX applications
- e(fx)clipse 1.0 – New Features – The clever CSS-Editor who got more clever

- e(fx)clipse 1.0 – New Features - Integration of JavaFX source and property JavaDoc
- e(fx)clipse 1.0 – New Features - Consume Non-OSGi-Artifacts from a maven repository
... but there are many many other small improvements, bugfixes, ... . We resolved more the 100 Bug/Feature-Tickets, started to see commercial adoption of our runtime and a vibrant community who started contributing back fixes, filed world class bug reports. As with any release I'd like to thank some people/organizations:
- BestSolution.at for sponsoring the development
- External contributors like Christoph Keimel & Sun Volland for their excellent contributions to the runtime platform
- the OpenJFX-Team to fix bugs affecting e(fx)clipse and accept contributions so that we could implement missing features
