Best Eclipse Plugins for java development making use of spring/ struts /hibernate?

I am looking for plugins which make developer's life easy while using technologies like Struts/ Spring/ Hibernate. For instance, here is a requirement:

If I were to change an Struts Action, I should be able to list out all the Struts Actions for my webapp, right click and add a method/ do some chan开发者_开发技巧ges.

So, basically, I need to know what plugins will make eclipse more 'technology/framework friendly'.

Appreciate your help!

I've heard good things about Spring IDE. It has support for the Spring basics plus a few associated libraries, and is available as an Eclipse plugin download from http://springide.org/updatesite/. Once installed, you apply a Spring nature to the project in order to use it.

Hibernate also has Hibernate Tools available, but I've never checked that out to see how it works. From the description, it apparently offers some functions to make creating and editing mapping files easier.

As far as I can tell, Struts doesn't have anything up-to-date as far as IDE plugins go. MyEclipse may have something like that.

Side note: for some reason, I've never stuck with the plugins for these libraries. I gave the Spring one a try once, but eventually got used to editing the Spring configs manually and haven't touched it in a while. I don't know how much of a benefit they would be for increasing config file creation... although they probably would help in visualizing dependencies in a big set of Spring configs.

Spring tools suite is great for this. You might also look into Fast Code Eclipse Plugin

If you don't mind paying the price ($31.75 for standard, $63.55 for pro), you could check out MyEclipse. This is a nice and powerful "extension" of Eclipse that has many nice features, including Spring Tools, Struts (and Struts 2), Hibernate and many more.
