| <h1>RAP Examples</h1> |
| |
| <p>Note: This chapter assumes that you have downloaded the latest RAP Taget |
| Platform. The download and instructions on how to install it are available |
| <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/rap/downloads.php">here</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>There are two kinds of example types available.</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <h3>Templates</h3> |
| |
| <p>To create a RAP plug-in from a template, open the |
| <strong>New Project</strong> wizard (<strong>File > New > Project</strong>) |
| and select <strong>Plug-in Project</strong>. Type a project name (e.g. mail) |
| and click <strong>Next</strong>. On the following page, ensure that the |
| option <strong>This plug-in will make contributions to the UI</strong> |
| is selected and no <strong>Rich Client Application</strong> will be created. |
| Click <strong>Next</strong>. Now you should see a page where you can select |
| a template. Select one of the templates with the RAP prefix (e.g. RAP Mail). |
| Click <strong>Finish</strong>.</p> |
| |
| <p>The plug-in comes with a preconfigured launch configuration. Open |
| the Run dialog (<strong>Run > Open Run Dialog...</strong>), select the |
| <a href="launcher.html#rap">RAP Launch Configuration</a> that matches your |
| project name (e.g. mail) and click <strong>Run</strong> to start.</p> |
| |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <h3>Demo Plug-in</h3> |
| <p>The RAP project comes with two example applications demonstrating the |
| features and capabilities of RAP.</p> |
| |
| <p>The first application provides a workbench very closely aligned to the |
| RCP workbench. The second demo, referred to as the 'controls demo', shows |
| what widgets there are and that they behave very similar to the SWT |
| widgets.</p> |
| |
| <p>To access and run these demo applications, please open the Plug-ins view |
| (e.g. through the Plug-in Development perspective). Select the plug-in named |
| <strong>org.eclipse.rap.demo</strong> which contains both demo applications, |
| right-click on this plug-in and select <strong>Import as > Source Project |
| </strong>. |
| This plug-in will then appear with all source files in your workspace. The |
| demo also provides a ready-to-use <a href="launcher.html#equinox">Equinox |
| Launch Configuration</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>After launching, you can access the workbench demo using the |
| URL <strong>http://localhost:<port>/rap?startup=default</strong>. To |
| try the controls demo enter the following URL: |
| <strong>http://localhost:<port>/rap?startup=controls</strong>.</p> |
