Re: [eclipselink-users] In-Eclipse output from the annotation processor?

David,

Yes, you should give Dali a try, especially if you are using 
EclipseLink, as it has a number of features specific to EclipseLink 
functionality.  One of the biggest features in Dali is the entity 
validation, which is integrated with the problems view.  You can also 
customize this validation just like you customize errors/warnings for 
the compiler.   It also offers its own metamodel generation, which is 
integrated into the IDE experience.  As a result you don't have to 
perform a separate metamodel generation step.

You can install Dali into your existing installation using the 
Help->Install New Software... menu item.
