Organized for rapid access, focused on productivity, Eclipse Distilled brings together all the answers you need to make the most of today's most powerful Java development environment. David Carlson introduces proven best practices for working with Eclipse, and shows exactly how to integrate Eclipse into any Agile development process.

Part I shows how to customize workspaces, projects, perspectives, and views for optimal efficiency—and how to leverage Eclipse's rapid development, navigation, and debugging features to maximize both productivity and code quality. Part II focuses entirely on Agile development, demonstrating how Eclipse can simplify team ownership, refactoring, continuous testing, continuousintegration, and other Agile practices. Coverage includes

• Managing Eclipse projects from start to finish: handling both content and complexity

• Using perspectives, views, and editors to work more efficiently

• Setting preferences to fit your own unique needs—or your team's

• Leveraging Eclipse's powerful local and remote debugging tools

• Understanding how Eclipse fits into contemporary iterative development processes

• Performing continuous testing with JUnit in the Eclipse environment

• Using Eclipse's wizard-assisted refactoring tools

• Implementing continuous integration with Ant-based automated project builders

• Employing best practices for code sharing with CVS and other repositories

By focusing on need-to-know information and providing best practices and methodologies, this book is designed to get you working with Eclipse quickly. Whether you're building enterprise systems, Eclipse plug-ins, or anything else, this concise book will help you write better code—and do it faster.
