Re: [cdt-dev] CDT and RAP
|
Hi *,
well, I am not in the RAP team, but personally I wouldn't want to run JDT,
CDT, or similar complex IDEs as a RAP application.
At the moment. ;-)
But ten years ago I didn't think that I would ever run a complete IDE in a
JRE...
On the other hand there might be some interesting usecases for CDT and RAP in
the future, usecases that will be possible with such a solution. But
currently it is not possible to port such applications because of the missing
StyledText in RAP.
At EclipseCon there is a tutorial on single sourcing RCP and RAP:

Hope this helps...
