RAP + Spring Integration - where to start? [message #795315]

Hi,

sorry for the "absolute beginner" question, but I am quite confused
where to start. What technologies do I need to develop RAP Applications
that use Spring DI/AOP technologies for the service layer and can be
build with Maven/tycho?

There is Spring DM, Virgo, Gemini Web, Gemini Blueprint, Equinox, Maya.
What do I need, what not (e.g. outdated technology)? Where to start?

Please help to reduce my google headaches :(

Thanks!
Kris

Hi Kris,

If you are interested we are developping an Eclipse RCP/RAP Resume, Project...application in XDocReport project.
You have an online demo at http://xdocreport-rap.opensagres.cloudbees.net/xdocreport?startup=fr.opensagres.xdocreport.eclipse.ui.application

In this application we use:

Gemini Blueprint (Spring DM)
EclipseLink for JPA
Spring Data JPA
Eclipse RCP/RAP
Some widgets from Nebula.

Equinox is the OSGi container which manages plugin extension. So you need everything use it.

You need not Virgo as WEB server to launch RAP Application based on Gemini Blueprint (Spring DM). The Jetty server wich is used in OSGi context is enough. More you can create a WAR of the RAP Application with tools WARProduct (from Libra project)
and you can execute your RAP Application with Spring DM in a simpel Tomcat (our demo works with a Tomcat which doesn't support OSGi).

Maya I don't know what is it.

Good luck.

Regards Angelo

Hi Angelo!

thanks for your answer. This clarifies it a bit more - so it is
(technically) not mandatory to have an OSGI server as runtime base.

BTW - is the xdocreport app also a good single-source example, i.e does
it provide RCP and RAP Clients?

Regards
Kris

Hi,

XDocReport application provides RCP and RAP Clients too.
For the moment it's based on RCP, but I would like to migrate to E4 as soon as RAP will support it.

Source are stored in Git http://code.google.com/p/xdocreport/source/checkout?repo=eclipse but I'm afraid that you have a lot of trouble to install it because we have none doc for that (must use maven (m2Eclipse suggested), must install target platform, must create 2 workspace (one for RAP and one for RCP) with well bundles, etc...).

Goal of this XDocReport application is to have WEB Application (with RAP), Fat client (RCP), Client/Server application (we wish support several remoting mean (DOSGi, Spring HttpInvoker...) to manage Resume (create, modify, serach), generate resume, etc.

We try to use last technologies like Spring Data, Gemini BluePrint etc.
