Co-browsing in ECF [message #537194] Tue, 01 June 2010 11:11 Go to next message

Do we have co-browsing functionality in ECF?
I would like to allow a support staff of the Bank promptly to help the client (an employee of the Bank runs the client browser screen with the current state)

Hi Sergey,

I need to ask: what exactly do you mean co-browsing? We do already have
the means to share URLs, and when received to open/navigate a browser
view within Eclipse...is that the functionality you are referring to?

Perhaps more importantly, ECF exposes several APIs (e.g. datashare,
sharedobject) to share other entities (Strings, URLs, xml, serialized
objects, etc)...and this allows you to put whatever user interface you
desire on the sending/receiving end (if you don't like the UI that comes
with the functionality above...or wish to put something else that's
specific/integrated with your own application).

Scott, good day.

Talking about co-browsing I mean sharing between two browsers of one
end-user session.
For instance - the bank employs the Internet banking system based on
the WebLogic Portal.
An end-user attempts to transfer the money, but he was stuck and did
not know what to do.
He calls the bank support, they connected to its session and help him
decide what is necessary to press the button to complete the
operation.

Best Regards,
Sergey

Hi Sergey,

I see. ECF's example collaboration app does not have this specific
variety of co-browsing. However, like I mentioned, it is quite
possible/easy to implement this variety of co-browsing using the
interprocess communication APIs that ECF provides.
