Hi,

Looking at the http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/RWTOverview I couldn't
find certain widgets and wish to know if RAP supports them: Chart,
TreeTable, Accordion, Wizard and Map.

I saw that there is a Nebula Project http://www.eclipse.org/nebula/
Will all these widget be added to RWT as well? if so, when?

Thanks,
Liat

Hi,

there is currently no support of these widgets and unfortunately there is no
schedule for the 1.0 release yet (with exception of the jface wizards). But
as we strived to develop a framework that fits the demands of the
programmers using this framework we try to be as flexible as possible to
feature requests. Feature requests can be added to the bugzilla database.

Ciao
Frank

Thanks for the fast response :)

Assuming I already have a RCP project with such widgets, and i wish to
move to Web application, how will that work if those widgets are not
supported by the RWT?

Will an Eclipse RCP project can transform transparently to RWT?
I am familiar with the following FAQ:
"Does RAP enable my RCP applications to run on the Web without any changes?
The project aims for enabling as much reuse of RCP application components
as possible. However, for the first release of RAP a part of the UI of
existing RCP applications needs to be rewritten (which means that core
plug-ins can be reused, as long as they are multi-user capable). It shall
be possible to reuse Content and Labelproviders."

by plug-ins, do you mean widgets as well?



Thanks,
Liat

Hi,

by plug-ins we do not refer to widgets, as widgets by definition belong to
the UI-layer of an application. There will be a namespace switch of the
current RAP implementation to the same package names as the RCP
(SWT/JFace/Workbench) implementation, so that the reuse of RCP code will be
simplified. Still the transformation of a RCP project to an RAP project will
most of the time need some additional effort, because. RAP will only support
a subset of RCP functionalities.

We try to provide as much of the SWT widgets as possible, but due to
resource limitations not everything will be implemented in the 1.0 release
(besides that some stuff may not work due to limitations of the different
environment). But there is still the possibility to implement such a missing
widget by your own and contribute it to the project :-)

Ciao
