0.5 Release of Eclipse Integration for Karaf
I just published version 0.5 of Eclipse Integration for Karaf. This release cleans up the code considerably and removes several unnecessary dependencies. Going forward it will be easier to improve the tooling and make more timely releases.
This version requires Eclipse Helios and will work with Apache Karaf 2.x (1.x won't work very well).
Install from the update site:

Karaf server setup
Hi Stephen,
Thanks for the work you're doing on this. Good Karaf/Eclipse integration will be great to have.
I'm trying EIK 0.5 out and am having a problem setting up my server in the Servers view. I only see the Apache Felix Karaf v1.2 server type available, but I'm trying to set up Karaf 2.x as you suggest in this post.
I tried using 1.2 server type with my Karaf 2.1 installation, but when I start the server I get an error: "Unable to locate compatible Apache Felix Karaf platform model".
Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Excellent work
Your work is excellent and innovative, keep up the good work! While trying your latest distribution, I received the following: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: info.evanchik.eclipse.karaf.wtp.core.tasks.KarafPublishTask
I looked in git and did not see the class there either. Any ideas or clues on how to overcome this error?
Will you test it with Eclipse/Windows
Hmmm... I can't get it to work under Windows.
The error is:
An internal error occurred during: "Launching OSGiTest". Invalid platform Missing Karaf or ServiceMix Kernel configuration file: {org.apache.servicemix|org.apache.felix.karaf|org.apache.karaf}.management.cfg
Using the update site I
Using the update site I installed the 0.5.0 version of the Eclipse features. However, the installed version of the tool only allows a server runtime to be created with version 1.2 of Apache Karaf. I was unable to create a server runtime with a 2.1.2 installation. When I try to start the server I get a "unable to locate compatible Apache Felix Karaf platform model". Is the right version of the plugins being published?
