All,
We are pleased to announce the availability of the ChoiceMaker
Technologies technical report "Eclipse Plugin-Based Applications and J2EE
Components" along with some pre-production software at
http://www.choicemaker.com/EclipsePlugins.htm. We welcome comments and
criticism.
Regards,
Martin
Abstract
--------
The Eclipse core runtime engine provides the benefits of component-based
development and the Plugin Development Environment (PDE) provides a
convenient means to create plugins, fragments, and features. However, the
runtime engine lacks some features for building standalone applications
and Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) components. We address this
in two ways.
First, we enhance the existing runtime engine with practical tools for
reporting errors, launching without a workspace, using external libraries,
deserializing objects, remote method invocation (RMI), and installing
Eclipse-based applications with WebStart.
Second, we introduce an alternative runtime engine that is suitable for
J2EE components because it supports Eclipse products in a single JAR
archive, does not modify shared singleton resources, and collaborates with
the security manager. This runtime, which is based on Eclipse code,
supports only part of the originals functionalitymost importantly
extension points.
