Will app isolation be supported in one Workbench (like tabs in Chrome)? [message #117925] Thu, 25 September 2008 05:42 Go to next message

Hi,

we are about to write an application suite, where a set of applications
would appear in the same workbench. Each of them would have a tab on the
top, and each should run in the process of its own.

It would be similar to Google Chrome in a sense that in Chrome the content
of each tab is provided by the process of its own.

Is there any design plans for supporting this via the Isolation API?

Is there any other solution/plan to achieve this?

Thanks for any comment!

Regards,
Marton

Isolets were pretty cool but I believe have ended up going nowhere.
One similar approach where there is currently some activity is the ability
to embed multiple OSGi framework instances in the same VM.
We do this today when we're using multiple webapps in a single app server
using the servletbridge. We're also doing further work in the framework
looking at launching "child" frameworks. Admittedly this is not quite
process level isolation but still is closer and quite interesting. There is
some ongoing discussion on this topic going on at the OSGi Alliance for
members however there unfortuantely is not much publicly available at the
moment.
