Future of Eclipse Projects

Many new projects arrive

Not easy to be an Eclipse project

IDE Focus

IP Due Dilligence take a lot of time

Eclipse Marketplace

New website

Integration in Eclipse

Eclipse Forge

Home for the rest of us

No IP problems


Eclipse Rich Client Platform (e4)


e4

“Advancing the king's pawn up two squares is highly useful because it occupies a center square, attacks the center square d5, and allows the development of White's king's bishop and queen.” (Wikipedia)

The Challenge

Tension between Stability and Innovation

We need to innovate to remain a viable platform


e4

“The mission of the e4 project is to build a next generation platform for pervasive, componentbased applications and tools.”


e4 – Purpose

Place for innovation

Not a product

e4 technologies will be used as the basis of Eclipse 4.0(and some will show up in 3.x)

Engage open source community

Build a better Eclipse

Make it more flexible and easier to use

Prepare for web technologies


e4 – Work Areas

Building UI Components

Using HTML/JavaScript, OpenSocial

XWT: declarative SWT

Easier to use API (20% covering 80% of the cases)

Assembling UI Components

Based on EMF model (modeled workbench)

Better control over result (filtering, sorting, etc)

Skinnable UI (CSS, Renderer)

Visual tool for assembling? (community contribution)

Other

Flexible Resources ( 3.6), JS Modularity→


Backwards Compatibility
