Thanks Scott, I got that to work.

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).
