BEA Systems will base the next version of its WebLogic Workshop IDE around the Eclipse open source tools platform, while Borland Software is stepping up its participation in Eclipse.
Code-named Daybreak and due in fall 2005, the next version of Workshop will feature Eclipse functionality and a framework for developing across the BEA WebLogic middleware stack, said Nils Gilman, director of product marketing at BEA.
BEA said it was joining Eclipse as a board member and strategic developer. The company will serve as co-lead on the Eclipse Web Tools Platform project.
An analyst said BEA's participation in Eclipse was overdue. "It's about time," said Burton Group's Anne Thomas Manes.
Borland, meanwhile, will elevate to the level of strategic developer within Eclipse and lead a project to boost application-modeling capabilities to the Eclipse arsenal. Its efforts will be based on the Unified Modeling Language 2.0 standard.
