The IDE
tools build on top of the Eclipse Web Tools Project (WTP) and collaborate with other Eclipse technologies such as the
Eclipse Libra project.
</p><p>Among other things, the Virgo Tools support the creation of new OSGi bundle and PAR projects within Eclipse, and
the conversion of existing projects into OSGi bundle projects. Projects can then be deployed and debugged on a running
Virgo Runtime from within Eclipse.
</p><p>Besides its OSGi bundle projects, starting from version 1.5 Virgo Tools support usage of Plug-in Development
Environment (Eclipse PDE) for developing projects that can be deployed and debugged on a running Virgo Runtime from within Eclipse.
