Re: [ecf-dev] Error in compiling the org.eclipse.ecf.examples.remoteservice.hello

Hi Ali,

Hello everyone.
I am trying to run the "hello.*" examples. I downloaded the source but
it seems there has been some changes to the API. For one, when I was
using ECF 3.2, it couldn't find
org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservice.IAsyncCallBack. I then noticed that ECF
3.3 has that interface so I set my target platform to ECF 3.3.
However, in there, the same type is not generic (the example code has
it as IAsyncCallback<String>...). Other hello.* projects have related
issues. My question si what version of ECF should I be using for these
examples to work?
Well, to use the CVS HEAD version of these example projects, you should
use the latest ECF code (also from HEAD)...as yes...the hello example
code has been enhanced to use the new ECF asynchronous services stuff.
1) load the needed ECF projects into your workspace. The needed
projects are a subset of those available in the project set that's here:
http://www.eclipse.org/ecf/dev_resources.php
2) Use a very recent build of the ECF SDK for your target platform. You
can get a very recent build here (p2 repo):
http://download.eclipse.org/rt/ecf/3.3/helios/site.p2
2) Use an older (3.2-compatible) version of the hello world example
source code. You can get this by switching to this branch for those
projects in your workspace: Release_3_2. You can switch to this branch
by selecting the relevant project(s), right clicking to bring up the
context menu, choosing Team->Switch to Another Branch or Version ->
Refresh Tags -> select Release_3_2 -> OK.
I apologize that this is so difficult. Since we're trying to add the
final things on (e.g. asynchronous remote services support) to both the
API and the examples we're this is a little more unstable right now
compared to the usual.
BTW, if you want to explore the ECF code a little further, then doing 1
might be a good idea until we get ECF 3.3 finished (it's going out with
Helios).
