Eclipse4 applications on RAP [message #1060374]

Hy there,

could anyone please help me to get the example on https://github.com/eclipsesource/rap-e4 running, showcasing the usage of E4 on RAP?

I am currently facing two problems:

The target is not correct; I could remediate this by updating it. But in the code the class org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench.rap.E4EntryPointFactory is referenced. And even google does not show me a location on where to get this Sad

Thanks,
Marco

Hi Marco,

This is an experimental repository, it's not ready for production. You
can read more about this experiment in this blog post [1].

The class E4EntryPointFactory is contained in a fork of the platform.ui
repository [2].

Regards,
Ralf

Hy Ralf, thanks again for your answer! As mentioned in the issue on github I can't get the example running. I have been attentative to the repository by your blog [1] entry in first place!

I am not considering it for production use, but for learning about the curren state of Eclipse 4 - RAP integration. Could you give me a few hints on what would have to be done to adapt it to the current state of development and get the example running again? I tried the following steps (as described in the issue):

Imported your branch
Set the baseline error to warning
Loaded the target, did an update (as the target is not working) and fixed the references to RAP 2.0 (click on edit, select the feature)
Modified some Classes and methods for example switch from IEntryPoint to EntryPoint

Now, however, I do not find the bundle org.eclipse.e4.services.util, while the code seems to compile.

Hi Marco,

that was some time ago, I don't recall all the details. But I still have
this workspace, if this helps.

There's no such bundle in my workspace, why is it needed?

Regards, Ralf
