WSO2 Enterprise Integrator (WSO2 EI) tooling provides capabilities of a complete Eclipse-based development environment for the EI. You can develop services, features, and artifacts as well as manage their links and dependencies via the simplified graphical editor of WSO2 EI tooling. 

You can install tooling using any of the following methods:

By default, some MacOS versions are shipped with JDK 1.9, which will not be compatible with WSO2 EI Tooling. Hence, you need to override it by installing Oracle JDK 1.8 and updating the folder path of the JDK 1.8 distribution in the Eclipse distribution when installing WSO2 EI Tooling.

For example, if you are using MacOS High Sierra (Version 10.13.4) with Oracle JDK 1.8.0_151, add the following properties to the <ECLIPSE_HOME>/Contents/Info.plist file.

<string>-vm</string>
<string><JAVA_HOME>/Contents/Home/bin/java</string>

Install WSO2 EI tooling with pre-packaged Eclipse

This method uses a complete plug-in installation with pre-packaged Eclipse so that you do not have to install Eclipse separately.

All you need to do is download the distribution based on your operating system, extract, and run it. For earlier versions, click More Resources and then click Previous Releases.
