I have recently moved to JDK 8 and want to start developing applications and have a server, wildfly. In NetBeans you just have to import the WildFly plugin, but in eclipse you have to import all JBoss Tools plugins. You need to install ~ 450MB (JBoss Tools) only for use WildFly 8? WildFly 8 has depends on all these plugins?
Greetings.
JBoss Tools is an umbrella project for a set of Eclipse plugins that includes support for JBoss and related technologies, such as Hibernate, JBoss AS / WildFly, CDI, OpenShift, Apache Camel, Red Hat JBoss Fuse, Docker, JSF, (X)HTML, Maven, and more.
Choose to install some, or preferably all, of JBoss Tools from its update site, including automatically downloading required libraries. Simply add the update site URL to Eclipse's Install Manager ("p2"), and select the features you wish to install.
You don't need to install all of JBoss Tools. There is a feature category called Abridged JBoss Tools. which contains the absolute minimum feature JBossAS Tools, which is basically a WTP adapter for JBoss AS/WildFly.
Note that there is some useful stuff in the Abridged Tools, like extended JSF and CDI support for Eclipse. But for stuff like Seam or Portlets which you probably don't use, it's safe to leave the corresponding features uninstalled.
