SWT and RWT in one OSGi container? [message #546620]

Hi,

I thought about writing a small RCP application that would include jetty
bundles as well as bundles for a RAP application. The RCP wouldn't have
much user inteface as its main role would be to monitor jetty server
(start it, stop it, open the browser). A tray icon would probably suffice.

The problem I see here is that the org.eclipse.swt bundle would have to
be deployed along with org.eclipse.rap.rwt bundle which would probably
lead to errors in runtime.

Is there a solution here? Did anyone try something like that?

Michał,

Running RAP and RCP in the same OSGi instance definitely doesn't work as
both use the same extension point namespace.
RWT and SWT or RAP and SWT or RCP and RWT should work as long as you
declare dependencies with Require-Bundle directives. Using
Package-Imports probably fails because the packages (at least in RWT)
are currently exported unversioned.

Actually tried However I haven't actually tried it myself. All the more
I would love to hear whether you succeeded in this.
