Google Plugin for Eclipse now provides richer tooling for Cloud SQL and Google APIs

Google Plugin for Eclipse (GPE) version 2.6 has been released with enhanced features for Cloud SQL and Google APIs, offering improved tooling for Java developers. The update introduces the ability to use the Java Persistence API (JPA) for accessing Cloud SQL, allowing developers to configure it as a project facet within the Eclipse Web Tools Platform. Additionally, the update simplifies the process of importing the latest Google APIs into GPE projects, providing a seamless way to download the necessary Java client libraries and dependencies for Google APIs directly within App Engine projects. Users will also receive notifications for API version updates to ensure client libraries remain current. The release aims to improve the developer experience for those working with Google's cloud services and is accompanied by installation instructions and a feedback channel through the GPE group.
