Eclipse RAP and IBM iWidget [message #646139]

Good day,

I'm at the moment looking at RAP 1.4M4 (and yes it looks cool and the blog post on Eclipsesource makes me happy).

Now a client im atm looking in to if RAP is a option for them are also talking about IBM iWidget becouse the product there working with is going that way.

I straight toucht that it would be competible with RAP seeing you can create your own widgets etc. But I am not sure so hence me asking can IBM's iWidget technology. If so how is this posible with single sourcing story that makes RAP so strong.

with kind regards,

Martijn Cremer

Hi Martijn,

I never had the pleasure to work with those IBM iWidgets. But from a
quick look at the manual, it seems that it's just a way to declare
reusable contents to be included in a web application. So far, I don't
see problems related to the browser widget. Do you?

Regards, Ralf

Hi Ralf,

To be honest I completely forgot the browser widget could do that. I my self have no experience with the iWidget framework but a client who is working with IBM filenet is considering to migrate there RCP product to RAP and filnet is going to use iWidget. And they asked and I was making it more complex (thinking of making costum widgets) while the browser is there for our confomrt.

Thanks for helping and a happy new year Smile
