| The RAP 1.2 project plan is still in preliminary state and not yet agreed upon by all parties. |
| <hr/> |
| The RAP project enables developers to build rich, Ajax-enabled Web |
| applications by using the Eclipse development model, plug-ins with |
| the well known Eclipse workbench extenstion points, JFace, and a |
| widget toolkit with SWT API. |
| </div><h2><a name="release_deliverables">Release Deliverables</a></h2><div> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <strong>Tooling</strong> (includes tool for debugging and |
| testing, runtime, documentation) available as Update Site |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <strong>Runtime</strong> (target platform, includes source) |
| available as downloadable archive |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| </div><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="release_milestones">Release Milestones</a></h2><div> |
| Release milestones will be occurring at roughly 6 week intervals, |
| and will be aligned with the |
| <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/Galileo_Simultaneous_Release"> |
| Galileo Simultaneous Release</a> train. |
| Milestone names start with M2 in order to clarify this |
| relationship. |

| The server-side part of the Rich Ajax Platform 1.2 will be written and |
| compiled against |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/server/">Equinox</a> |
| Version 3.5</li> |
| <li>Version 1.4.2 of the Java Platform APIs (i.e., Java 2 Platform, |
| Release 1.4.2 SE)</li> |
| <li> |
| <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/reference/api/index.html"> |
| Java Servlet API</a> Version 2.3 - 2.5</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The client-side reference implementation depends upon |
| <a href="http://qooxdoo.org">qooxdoo</a>. |
| For this release the following web browsers/rendering engines will be |
| supported |
| <ul> |
| <li>Internet Explorer >= 7.0</li> |
| <li>Gecko (i.e. Firefox, Netscape)</li> |
| <li>Webkit (i.e. Safari, Google Chrome)</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| </div><h3>Internationalization</h3> |
| <div> |
| The Rich Ajax Platform is designed as the basis for internationalized |
| products. The user interface elements provided by the RAP |
| components, including dialogs and error messages, are externalized. The |
| English strings are provided as the default resource bundles. |
| </div> |
| <p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="compatibility">Compatibility with Previous Releases</a></h2><div> |
| RAP 1.2 will be backward compatible with RAP 1.1. |

| <p>As RWT implements a subset of the SWT API, we aim to implement |
| functionality yet missing from RWT. |
| </p> |
| <p>This includes to make use of the newly implemented API in higher |
| layers (e.g. Workbench, JFace). |
