The Eclipse Rich AJAX Platform (RAP) allows developers to create AJAX-enabled Web applications using the OSGi standard component model. The main advantage of this technology is the ability to share the same Java code base for RCP and RIA applications.

This webinar will teach you about RAP's building blocks and how they compare with RCP, and how RAP fits into the overall Eclipse runtime. Jochen will demo how you can quickly create AJAX Web applications using known Eclipse development methods.

Eclipse Rich Ajax Platform (RAP) allows developers to create Rich Internet Applications (RIA) using the OSGi standard component model. The main advantage of this technology is the ability to share the same Java code base for RCP and RIA applications.

In this two-part screencast you are going to see RAP installation process, look and feel of the RAP 1.0 Demo application and creation of the simple RAP plugin:
1) Installation of the RAP 1.0 using the Eclipse Update Manager (01:15)
2) RAP 1.0 Demo application. Creation of the "Hello world" RAP plugin (02:15)

At the Eclipse Marketing Symposium, Coté had the chance to talk with Innoopract's Jochen Krause. They started talking about Innoopract's decision to move to Eclipse several years ago. At the moment, Innoopract is working with Eclipse on the Eclipse Rich Ajax Platform project, or RAP, which Jochen talks about. Then they move onto talking about the component-driven programming model that OSGi enables, along with several "ah-ha moments" for typical developers moving into that style of development. Finally, they talk more about Innoopract's business model, and drill a little deeper into the idea of "sponsored development" for open source projects.

The ATF Project team has created a set of demos to show some of the new JavaScript functionality provided by JSDT. Features include:

• Content assist
• Formatting JavaScript
• Validating HTML imports
• Quick fix
• Preferences

Many members of the Eclipse community find it important to give back as much as they take. In this episode of the Eclipse Europa podcast, Jochen Krause describes some of the areas in which Innoopract contributes to Eclipse. They are involved in the Eclipse Packaging Project as well as in developing core technology that will make the Eclipse application model available in web browsers using AJAX.

One of the driving technologies behind the "Web 2.0" movement, AJAX is at the forefront of up-and-coming, must-have technological skillsets. In this demo, users will be oriented to AJAX technologies in MyEclipse, and be guided in how to get started using these features. As the demo shows, a developer can even point this MyEclipse tool at an external AJAX-utilizing website (like netflix.com or dzone.com) and debug the code used by these sites to "get under the hood" of AJAX code. The MyEclipse JavaScript Debugger is the first integrated JavaScript Debugger in the Eclipse space, and continues to evolve using both proprietary and open source technologies.
