Introduction to Eclipse Equinox and OSGi

Thomas Watson (IBM Lotus), Simon Kaegi (IBM Rational)

Abstract:

The Eclipse Equinox project produces the core runtime used by Eclipse and the reference implementation for both the OSGi 4.1 framework and JSR 291 specifications. This webinar introduces attendees to OSGi and how developers can use Equinox to create component based applications. We highlight several new Equinox features in the Europa release, specifically improvements to the application model, server-side support and launching the runtime.

For code examples, see the File Link for this resource that is type "Other" (zip file). Most of the code for the full demo can be found in the CVS in the Equinox incubator:

CVS Server: dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/eclipse
Demo Directory: equinox-incubator/demos/app-model/

Total running time 53:10 minutes
