A new version of the RMI Plug-in for Eclipse (v2.0) has been just released. In the new version there are two new major features: 'RMI Spy', a live monitor of the RMI activity in an RMI application, and 'Ready to use examples' that are the best way of getting started with RMI in Eclipse. The RMI Registry inspector has greatly improved and it can now invoke almost any remote method (in previous version it was only possible to invoke methods that receive no arguments).
Also new in v2.0 - enhanced Java 5 and Java 6 support. The standard set of features include:
Automatic stubs generation
Local RMI registry control (start/stop/clean)
RMI Application Launcher - easy codebase and security policy configuration.
