Does JetBrains Rider support Azure Service Fabric application? - azure-service-fabric

I am new to Azure development and specificity to Azure Service Fabric. I find Visual Studio not rich as IntelliJ IDE. I installed the Rider IDE but it seems that it doesn't support a Service Fabric application.
Is there a plugin for a service fabric project?

No it doesn't support running and debugging SF projects.

How do I deploy a Java AppEngine app using a Serverless VPC access connector with Google plugin for Eclipse?

I created a Java AppEngine Standard application and managed the deployment through Google plugin for Eclipse. Then, I added a Serverless VPC access connector for a specific need. According to Google documentation, deployment must be done with the "beta" option:
Note: To use Serverless VPC Access, make sure you use gcloud beta to deploy your service.
How do I manage this deployment with Google plugin for Eclipse?
I use Gradle
Unfortunately, using the gcloud beta feature is not supported in the Cloud Tools for Eclipse plugin (CT4E). (By the way, Google Plugin for Eclipse (GPE) is deprecated, but it is not clear if you are using CT4E or GPE.)
However, the latest App Engine Maven/Gradle plugins (Cloud SDK-based) support using the gcloud beta feature through the gclodeMode parameter for deployment, so as a workaround, you could run the plugins on the command line (or invoke through IDE).

Eclipse websphere dev tools plugin with dockerized websphere

Is there a way to run WebSpehere9 traditional from docker container as eclipse server with IBM WebSphere Application Server V9.x Developer Tools plugin?
WDT currently only has the Docker support for WebSphere Liberty server where it can discover running containers with Liberty server and allows you to create server to develop application in that scenario. This function is not available for WebSphere Application Server traditional in the current version of WDT.
Feel free to submit a feature enhancement request for this function from here and select WebSphere Developer Tools on the product field.

How to use Cloud Tools for Eclipse plugin to create microservices in Google App Engine?

As I upgraded my Eclipse to Neon 2 (Eclipse 4.6.2), as "Google Plugin for Eclipse" no longer support, so I switch to Google's "Cloud Tools for Eclipse plugin" (https://cloud.google.com/eclipse/docs/quickstart)
Last time that is easy to use "Google Plugin for Eclipse" to create multiple modules (known as microservices). I just need create an "Enterprise Application Project" using GAE as runtime and then create "Dynamic Web Project" and tie to that Enterprise App.
However in this "Cloud Tools for Eclipse", when I choose new Enterprise App, Google App Engine is not an option in runtime selection.
Any help on how to use "Cloud Tools for Eclipse" to create microservices for GAE?
Thanks
The Google Cloud SDK on which the new Cloud Tools for Eclipse depends does not support the EAR format. For the moment, you'll need to create individual Eclipse projects for each separate service, and deploy them individually.
We do need to beef up our multi-module support. Though that's not going to happen tomorrow, let me see what I can do about moving it up the stack.

Apache Tomcat v8.5 icon missing from list in Eclipse's New Server Run Time Environment

Here is the information about my Development Environment:
-Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.(Version: Neon Release (4.6.0))
(Build id: 20160613-1800)
-Java SE Dev Kit 8u102

Trial version SAP HANA Cloud Platform Cockpit
Please forgive me if the question sounds naive but I'm been a .NET Developer for past few years, and I'm trying to learn SAP Hana Cloud technology.
I've learned that you have to develop code on Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers in order deploy to the Trial version SAP HANA Cloud Platform
I was trying to use Tomcat 8.5 in my local development environment.
How can I add the the Apache Tomcat v8.5 icon taht is missing from the list within the "New Server Run Time Environment"?
The version of Eclipse WTP that supports Tomcat 8.5 is not out yet and is expected in the 1st maintenance release.
If you need it sooner, you can find instructions on how to get it to run in this bug report: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=494936

Rational Application Developer vs Eclipse

What are the features or functionality which is present in Rational Application Developer and not in Eclipse? Why is Rational Application Developer needed?
By default Eclipse is only Java development environment not Java EE, so to develop for Java EE you need Eclipse bundle for Java EE developers. RAD is based on that, plus has many other features more strictly related to developing and deploying applications to various WebSphere products.
Here is short list with additional features in RAD (it is not complete list and might change in detailed comparison between specific RAD and Eclipse for Java EE versions):
Programming support extensions
Enhanced JSF tooling
SCA, SIP, OSGi, WebSphere Batch tooling
Portlet and Portal theme tooling
JCA wizards (creating custom JCA adapters)
Jython editor for creating WebSphere wsadmin scripts
Modeling and analysis extensions
UML visualizations
Code coverage tools
Static code analysis
Some extensions in profiling tools
Deployment extensions - provided testing environments and server tools for:
WebSphere Application Server 7.0, 8.0, 8.5.5
WebSphere Liberty - new lightweight runtime
WebSphere Portal
Tools to support deployment to Bluemix
You can see whats new here - RAD 9.1 new features and enhancements
If you plan to buy WebSphere Application Server, you might be interested in
the Tools Edition license, where in addition to server licenses you get unlimited number of RAD licenses for development for that runtime.
UPDATE
If you just need server support in Eclipse there is WebSphere Developer tools plugin for Eclipse, freely available via Eclipse Marketplace, which supports WAS 8, 8.5, 9 and WebSphere Liberty.
Eclipse doesn't have a server built-in to run the web app on. RAD is Eclipse + some more features.
RAD is a commercial Eclipse-based IDE, developed by IBM. At a very high level, in RAD, WebSphere comes bundled and you can deploy your web application on the WebSphere server itself. If you are working on an application which is actually deployed on IBM WebSphere server (in production), you can use RAD to avoid surprises which might occur post deployment.
However, deployment on WebSphere in RAD is a time and resource consuming process.
If you want to check free alternatives, you can use Eclipse and a Tomcat server.
You could read more about RAD on the Wikipedia link and also on IBM website.
Long answer short. If you have Websphere server in your enterprise you are better off using RAD but if you don't then just use Eclipse. The additional tooling in RAD over Eclipse is primarily for IBM product (WAS, Blumix, WID, ..) support.
(I have been working with Eclipse ever since its inception, back in the happy WSAD days)
The more IBM products you use — the likelier you are to get any benefit by using RAD.
If your usage of IBM products is restricted to WebSphere Application Server, then don't bother. The JavaEE spec is mature enough and Eclipse's WST / JST do a very good job.
