The Eclipse Scout team is proud to announce that Eclipse Scout 8.0 is now available as part of the Eclipse Photon release train.

Highlights include:

Support for hierarchical tables!
A brand new "Tag"-Field
Layout your tiles in a beautiful reflowing grid with "TileGrid"
The outline overviews are now visually more appealing
Improved support for providing REST interfaces
New, modern, field style (simple underlined field instead of a box)
Adding fields to a groupbox or tabbox at runtime is now possible! (limitations apply)
Consistent naming of properties
Improvements to many existing fields: Groupbox, Tabbox, ImageField, ...

There are way too many things to point out here. Check out the release notes for all the details!

Our documentation and demo-apps have been updated too! We now offer a separate documentation for ScoutJS developers, in addition to the regular technical documentation.

The demo-apps also have received an overhaul and are ready to show off all the slick new fields, features and field style.

Some features are also highlighted in our blog post.

Hello there,

I just wanted to say a big thank you for all the work you have done to release the next verion of your awesome framework. I appreciate this very much. It's a pleasure building applications with Scout.

But it wouldn't be if I hadn't a request :) Would it be possible that you update your Eclipse Scout / Spring Boot showcase to the most recent versions of Scout and Spring Boot? That would be so awesome :)

Thanks in advance,

Peter

Hello Peter

Thanks for your feedback! We're glad you like Scout Photon :)

Regarding your request: I can't make any promises, but I will pass this along to the author of the showcase.
Since he's on a tour around the world, it might take a while...

Cheers,
Patrick

That's good for him and bad for me. :)

Since I have no pressure yet to deliver a new version of my application I can wait.

But nonetheless I'd really appreciate the effort when there is an update to Boot 2.0 :)

Thanks,

Peter

hi peter

unfortunately, i am no longer working with the scout team and my focus has shifted away from scout accordingly. as a result upgrading of the scoutboot repository will depend on the community involvement and/or the scout team.

@peter, @scout-team, @community
i hope you will find a way to move this forward without me because i am convinced that scout boot still is a pretty cool approach :-)

best regards
matthias

Oh that's sad the hear :(

But yes, I also think that the scout boot approach is a cool one, but unfortunately I'm not as a good developer as it needs to get this migration done.

So any help is deeply appreciated. Will there be any chance?

Thanks, Peter
