| <tr valign="top" align="left"> |
| <td width="20%"> |
| <b>JavaScript Compression</b> |
| </td> |
| <td width="80%"> |
| The new implementation of Javascript compression is now available. It |
| is enabled by default, when you use the "Standard" client-side |
| library variant. |
| <p> |
| <img src="images/RuntimeConfig.png" /> |
| </p> |
| To disable Javascript compression switch to the "Debug" library variant, |
| which sets the system property <code>org.eclipse.rwt.clientLibraryVariant</code> |
| to <code>DEBUG</code> for the VM that is being launched. |
| <p> |
| The total size of the index page was reduced by more than 20%.</p> |

| |
| <tr valign="top" align="left"> |
| <td width="20%"> |
| <b>Cursor Support</b></td> |
| <td width="80%"> |
| The <code>Control</code> cursor support is now available. It is fully |
| implemented in the following widgets: |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>Button</code></li> |
| <li><code>Label</code></li> |
| <li><code>CLabel</code></li> |
| <li><code>List</code></li> |
| <li><code>Composite</code></li> |
| <li><code>Canvas</code></li> |
| <li><code>Combo</code></li> |
| <li><code>Text</code></li> |
| <li><code>Spinner</code></li> |
| <li><code>Scale</code></li> |
| </ul> |
| <br /> |
| To obtain an instance of <code>org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Cursor</code>, |
| you should use code like this: |
| <br/><br/> |
| <code>Cursor cursor = Graphics.getCursor( SWT.CURSOR_CROSS ); |
| <br/> |
| control.setCursor( cursor );</code> |
| <br /> |
| <img src="images/RAPCustomCursor.png" /> |
| <br /> |
| As with all resources in RWT, the <code>Cursor</code> instances are |
| shared among sessions. That's why, there is no <code>Cursor#dispose()</code> |
| method available. |
| <p /> |
| <td/> |
| </tr> |
| |
| <tr valign="top" align="left"> |
| <td width="20%"> |
| <b>Scale Widget</b></td> |
| <td width="80%"> |
| Now there exists a <code>Scale</code> widget that works much the |
| same as in SWT. |
| <p> |
| <img src="images/RAPScale.png" /></p> |
| <p /> |
| <td/> |
| </tr> |
| |
| <tr valign="top" align="left"> |
| <td width="20%"> |
| <b>DateTime Widget</b></td> |
| <td width="80%"> |
| The long awaited <code>DateTime</code> widget is now available. Using |
| the style flags <code>SWT.DATE</code>, <code>SWT.TIME</code>, |
| <code>SWT.CALENDAR</code> and <code>SWT.SHORT</code>, <code>SWT.MEDIUM</code>, |
| <code>SWT.LONG</code> you can switch the widget mode. Additionally |
| the <code>DateTime</code> widget goes by the locale from |
| <code>RWT#getLocale()</code> to display the day and month names in |
| your preferred language. |
| <p> |
| <img src="images/RAPDateTime.png" /> |
| </p> |
| <p /> |
| <td/> |
| </tr> |
| |
| <tr valign="top" align="left"> |
| <td width="20%"> |
| <b>ExpandBar Widget</b></td> |
| <td width="80%"> |
| RWT provides an <code>ExpandBar</code> control. It can be used to |
| represent a category or group of elements. |
| You may have a look at the <code>org.eclipse.rap.demo.controls.ExpandBarTab</code> |
| class in the demo plug-in to see how to use it. |
| <p> |
| <img src="images/RAPExpandBar.png" /></p> |
| <p /> |
| <td/> |
| </tr> |
| |
| <tr valign="top" align="left"> |
| <td width="20%"> |
| <b>MessageBox</b></td> |
| <td width="80%"> |
| With a standard SWT <code>MessageBox</code> you can display a message |
| dialog without using JFace. |
| <p> |
| <img src="images/RAPMessageBox.png" /></p> |
| The same style flag combinations like in SWT are available: |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>SWT.OK</code></li> |
| <li><code>SWT.OK | SWT.CANCEL</code></li> |
| <li><code>SWT.YES | SWT.NO</code></li> |
| <li><code>SWT.YES | SWT.NO | SWT.CANCEL</code></li> |
| <li><code>SWT.RETRY | SWT.CANCEL</code></li> |
| <li><code>SWT.ABORT | SWT.RETRY | SWT.IGNORE</code></li> |
| </ul> |
