Spring sts with websphere

I'm trying to switch over from IBM rational application developer to spring STS.

One of the first things I've noticed is that when I try do define a websphere server runtime library it doesn't list websphere application servers and hence I can't import a websphere library . I also noticed that it doesn't accept websphere (in my case websphere 5.1) as a targeted runtime.

Is it possible to do these two things in Spring STS?

Also, if it's not possible in spring STS does anyone reccommend an alternate IDE that might suit the job better?

Thanks

The general solution is installing the IBM WebSphere Application Server Developer Tools eclipse plugin.

An alternative is using MyEclipse Blue which still supports some older WAS versions.

However for the WebSphere 5.1 you are out of luck. Noone supports this 8 year old piece of software anymore. You should really have a serious look at upgrading your WebSphere installation or migrating to a different newer application server.

Update

Hmm. Just figured they still list WAS5x support. However I wouldn't count on it.
