NetBeans 6.1 was just released and it is both a feature and a performance release. The feature part has to do with JavaScript support - the language everybody loves to hate (See Roberto's talk at JavaOne), MySQL improved support, Spring Framework support, Hibernate support, Axis 2, Sailfin support, and Jersey (RESTful Web Services) support. |
It's also bringing back features lost in the translation from 5.5. to 6.0 such as JavaBeans support and the JSF CRUD Generator. NetBeans also now provides a more natural way to share libraries. All in all a lot of web and server-side features including support for the latest GlassFish v2ur2 release. The full list of features is here.
Performance is related to startup-time, completion speed, and memory consumption. Coming attractions include PHP support, JavaScript debugger, Groovy/Grails support, and more.
As always, the nice download matrix is available here. Congratulations to the team for yet another solid release!
