Many people seem to have problems rocking PHP with Eclipse. It can be confusing if you are not familiar with Eclipse and are just trying to find your first real PHP development environment. The guys from PHPDeveloperBlog have some nice videos regarding this problem up on youtube. They will help you get started in no time.

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.

Thanks to Adobe for contributing their Adobe Acrobat Connect product to host this webinar.

Yossi Leon, Zend Development Tools Product Manager, will help you to get started with Zend Studio for Eclipse. Yossi will demonstrate the development flow starting from creating a new project, importing project from Zend Studio 5.X, developing the application, running it and eventually testing it using the different tools available in the product. The demonstration will also cover the recommended methods for creating projects associated with web server files and remote systems.

Total running time will be approximately 1 hour

“Neon” is the code name for the Eclipse based version of Zend Studio. Yossi Leon, the Product Manager of the Development Tools in Zend Technologies, will go over the different features of Zend Studio Neon Beta, the key benefits of the Eclipse based product and the differences between the Neon and the PDT project. Yossi will also demonstrate the different capabilities of Neon and its integration with Zend Products.

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.
