Hello All !!!

I am new to RAP development and I have a pretty basic question . In RCP application there is a workspace associated with it where all configuration files are saved. We have a RCP application which reads some configuration files from this workspace and also creates and save some new files in this workspace.

My question is how does the workspace concept of RCP applications translates into RAP ?

Is this something taken care by RAP framework ? If so how ?

Also my understanding is RAP is subset of RCP. So what are the limitations of RAP ? What is not supported ?
Is there any document ?

Thanks
Sunil

Since RAP is a multi-user framework, it offers data-stores with
different scopes. You should use those:
