| <h3>Libra</h3> |
| <div id="introText"> |
| |
| <p>Libra is an open source project under the Eclipse Web Tools |
| Platform Container Project. It provides standard tools for OSGi |
| Enterprise application development and in particular tools that |
| integrate the existing WTP and PDE tooling so that OSGi Enterprise |
| applications can be developed with both tooling at the same time. Libra |
| also will enable users to work with tools for better experience in the |
| Server-Side Equinox scenario.</p> |
| <p>The goals of the project are: |
| <ul> |
| <li>Providing tools for creation of deployable artifacts for |
| application servers implementing the OSGi Enterprise specification, |
| e.g. wizard for creating new Web Application Bundle projects.</li> |
| <li>Providing tools for converting existing Java EE deployable |
| artifacts to OSGi Enterprise deployable artifacts, e.g. wizard for |
| converting Dynamic Web projects to a Web Application Bundle projects.</li> |
| <li>Contributing tools for editing and validation of the metadata of |
| OSGi Enterprise artifacts, e.g. extension of the PDE Manifest Editor |
| for editing manifest headers that are specific to Web Application |
| Bundles.</li> |
| <li>Developing OSGi server adapter, providing basic implementation |
| of configuring an OSGi-based application server, starting it and |
| deploying OSGi enterprise artifacts. This server adapter should be |
| customizable and extensible by adopters.</li> |
| <li>Delivering tools that improve the experience of developing |
| Server-Side Equinox applications.</li> |
| <li>Extending the tools in scope, so adopters can apply them |
| depending on their own application model.</li> |
| </ul> |
