Riena Project

Christian Campo (compeople)

Abstract:

Riena is an open source Eclipse project targeted at building client / server applications based on Eclipse technology. Its emphasis is on using OSGi Services everywhere, a transparent web service-based remoting technology and a sophisticated end-user oriented UI.

Riena is currently in incubation with plans to release Version 1.0 at the beginning of 2009.

This presentation will give an overview of Riena and introduce its base concepts:

Using services and extensions
Transparent access to local and remote OSGi services
Easily moving a local component to the remote server (with little to no change on the client)
A different end-user oriented UI
Introducing Ridgets
The new navigation model
How Eclipse features are used to clearly separate Model, View and Controller
How Riena uses JFace databinding and validation
An outlook into the future plans

Total running time 57:26 minutes
