This certified set of Eclipse plug-ins is designed to help develop, deploy and debug applications for Oracle WebLogic Server. It installs as a plug-in to your existing Eclipse, or will install Eclipse for you, and supports your favorite server or servlet engine.



In it's initial release, this is simply a re-brand of the WLS tools project a.k.a WebLogic Server Tools, combined with the Facelets Incubator and Oracle Plugin for DTP. Longer term, the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse will be the basis for Oracle's strategic Eclipse offering, combining the best Java EE development features of Oracle Workshop for WebLogic and Oracle's independent contributions to the Eclipse platform.
