First steps [message #376084]

I would like to start developing with Eclipselik, but I am a little confused
about tools.
I've just discovered that "Workbench" is an independent application, but I
mean to use Eclipse IDE to delevop an RCP application, so what should I do?
Using Dali inside the IDE can substituite the use of the external
"Workbench"?

Thanks

Giovani,

Yes, I would recommend using the Dali functionality within WTP to build a
RCP application using EclipseLink JPA. The Ganymede version of Dali
offered support for simplified configuration of many of EclipseLink JPA's
advanced features.

The Workbench is only provided for compatibility with those customers
using Oracle TopLink's classic API and metadata. Developers using JPA and
the Eclipse IDE should not need to use this utility.

OK thanks

In the wiki this concept is not clear.

I second that! I am a "newbe" as far as modern persistence (used JDBC
than Ibatis in the past). After studying the wiki I ended up working the
Eclipselink workbench.

I haven't made the jump from Europa to Gyanmede yet. The Eclipselink
workbench has let me use Eclipselink with my 3.3 projects ... so far.

It a great job guys! Thanks!!!
