RE: [geclipse-dev] g-eclipse RCP
|
Hi Angelo,
There is really no magic about creating a RCP with g-Eclipse. The procedure is exactly the same as for creating any other RCP. Basically you are creating a new RCP plug-in with the corresponding New Wizard in Eclipse:
1) File -> New -> Project
2) Plug-in Project -> Next
3) Name your project and make sure to select Eclipse as target platform -> Next
4) Make sure to select "Yes" in the "Rich Client Application" section of the next wizard page -> Next
5) Select one of the templates from the last wizard page -> Finish
Then you have to add all the required dependencies to this plug-in, i.e. the g-Eclipse plug-ins you intend to use. Additionally you of course have to set up the UI according to your needs, i.e. the perspective(s), view(s) etc. Now you're ready to implement everything that comes to your mind within your RCP Plug-in. After the development has come to a testable state you might export your RCP project as "Eclipse product". This is done from the corresponding wizard:
1) Right-click your RCP-project and select "Export"
2) Select Plug-in Development -> Eclipse product -> Next
3) The crucial thing here is the product configuration file that you have to create. Don't know from scratch how this is done though I did it in the past ... I leave this open as a last challenge for you ;-)
Finally you will end up with an exported Eclipse RCP which basically has the same directory structure as Eclipse itself. So there also should be an executable that launches your RCP. The name of the executable defaults to Eclipse but can be configured using the product configuration as many other things as well.
Hope that helps, good luck!
Mathias

Subject: [geclipse-dev] g-eclipse RCP
Hi all
A few weeks ago I started to work with g-Eclipse and in particular with
the IE plugins (eu.geclipse.instrumentation &
eu.geclipse.instrumentation) in order to access to remote instruments.
Now I would like to create (for an internal use) a minimalistic
stand-alone g-eclipse RCP with all the required plugins to 1)
access/control the IE instruments and 2) store data on SE.
Can someone give me some advice about doing it ?
Thanks, best regards
A.S.
