Dear Spring Community,

I am happy to announce the new milestone release M5 of the Cloud Foundry Integration for the SpringSource Tool Suite (STS).

This milestone release includes support for debugging applications in Cloud Foundry (for local clouds and the upcoming version of Micro Cloud Foundry). You can now start your apps in your local or micro cloud in debug mode and your Eclipse/STS debugger will automatically be connected to your app running inside of Cloud Foundry. You can set breakpoints, inspect variables, evaluate expressions, step through the app - everything you know from he good old Java debugger experience in Eclipse/STS.

In addition to that the milestone includes a number of fixes and improvements to existing features.

The extension is available from the Dashboard of STS or directly via this update site: http://dist.springsource.com/milestone/TOOLS/cloud/e3.6/

Its also available from the Eclipse Marketplace.

A blog post about debugging applications on CF will follow shortly. Please watch the Cloud Foundry Blog for updates.

Enjoy!
