Tom Jordahl Announces RDS Eclipse Plugin Beta to be Released to the Public (Very Soon)

I'm here at CF.Objective and have seen some great presentations so far today.

The keynote session was presented by Adobe's Tom Jordahl who demonstrated some really cool features and interaction that the new soon-to-be Eclipse plugin for RDS support will be offering. He also slipped in that a beta of the plugin will be available on Adobe Labs when the Flex 2.0 Beta 2 is released. When asked when the beta would be released to the public he of course avoided the question, but eventually hinted that Adobe is trying to get it out within the next 2 to 3 weeks.

So, this was my first look at the RDS plugin and I have to admit I was pretty impressed. Tom also gave us a quick sneak-peak at what looked like another Eclipse plugin (or it could have been part of the RDS plugin, I'm not sure) for ColdFusion code wizards (specifically a CFC creator).

Apparently Sean Corfield and Ray Camden have been harassing Mike Nimer for some specific features in this wizard tool (for our benefit).

From what I saw real quick, I was pretty impressed. Tom gave an example where he right-clicked on a table in a DB table and choose a CFC creator wizard. There were several really useful options in there. The one that caught my eye was an option for creating the CFC type. It had options to create an "Active Record CFC", a "Bean CFC, & DAO CFC", and "Flex Data Services Assembly CFS".
