CTOnews.com, October 23, according to Oracle's official press release, Oracle has launched a Java Platform extension for Visual Studio Code, which claims to cover the entire development cycle and supports class-level and variable refactoring. The extension is now available on Visual Studio Code marketplace and can be visited by interested partners.
