Is your Java EE development cycle rather more like Continuous Restart than Continuous Coding? Try coding without the need to restart anything, even to see complex Java EE code changes. Get rid of that lengthy build & redeploy phase with JRebel. It's free for 14 days and will save you 10+ minutes each hour! Sound good? Get your Free 14-day JRebel License Key
**Want to use JRebel on remote servers? Check out the new JRebel Remoting plugin in the Eclipse Marketplace as well!**
***************************************************
Two easy steps for eliminating redeploys in Java (and rocking out with JRebel for Eclipse):
1. Search for JRebel for Eclipse from the Eclipse Marketplace Client in your IDE - and download it!
2. Follow the JRebel Configuration Wizard to set up your license (new users should choose "I'm a new user and need an evaluation license")
***************************************************
Ok, so what is JRebel for Eclipse anyway?
JRebel for Eclipse is a specialized Eclipse IDE plugin that lets you instantly see the effects of changes you make to your Java code.
JRebel eliminates the need to build your app, redeploy your container (WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat, JBoss, etc.), or restart — so you can code your changes, then see that change immediately reflected in your application.
JRebel handles changing classes, configurations, or resources — so that’s everything from making a change to a method body, to adding a new method or class, to making a change to your framework configuration.

What's the deal with Redeploys and Restarts in Java anyway?
We believe that Java should be a fast & agile coding language. You shouldn't be forced to make changes to code without seeing their direct effects on your application, and redeploying wastes time, affects your focus, hurts your flow, and just plain stinks. To find out how much time these processes cost Java EE developers, we asked 1000+ to tell us about their environments, and made the report available here:
http://www.zeroturnaround.com/java-ee-productivity-report-2011/
Report Spoiler: 5 Weeks per year (40-hour weeks) are spent redeploying and restarting (on average). Yowza!

--Alan S, Java EE Developer said:
"JRebel is an awesome product. I probably save 3 hours out of a 6.5 hour workday using JRebel - I use Eclipse with JBoss and it saves me a tremendous amount of time by not having to restart JBoss every time I make a change."
--Peter Barber from Caitlin UK said:
"It used to take 5 mins to rebuild and restart the server - now we see changes pretty much instantaneously. I saw the value right away."
--Bob Janousek, Software Engineer at Calltrade said:
"Once we started using our JRebel Evaluation, we realized that we don't want to go back to the old way anymore! :-)"
--Adam Wells, Development Manager at PIPE Networks Pty Limited said:
"We were attracted to JRebel because we had grown very frustrated with starting JBoss app sever constantly. After seeing JRebel mentioned in several blogs recently, we gave it a try. While it doesn't eliminate app server restarts completely, we only redeploy about 10% as much as before, saving both time and attention span!"
