Re: AW: [riena-dev] Ridgets

Hi Christian,

Hi Scott,

1) as carsten wrote, Ridgets are an abstraction from the Widget of the used UI-Toolkit and they offer additional functionality like marker support and they offer easy access to databinding as well as support for validation of widgets and conversion (from widget to model). so its just way more than databinding by itself

I don't understand this. What exactly do you mean by 'validation and conversion (from widget to model)'? Is there a use case or code example/test that shows the value of this?

And what is meant by 'easy access to databinding'? A new API for databinding? Changes to databinding?



2) They are part of Riena because they are part of the different "process-orientiented user-interface" as noted here http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/riena/

This part of things seems to me to be more closely related to the JWT project than it is the stated primary purpose of Riena (transparent RPC).
