2 WTP Incubation and Roadmap | © 2006 by BEA, IBM, and Oracle; made available under the EPL v1.0

Before I get started…

EclipseCon Call for Participation

Submit or comment on proposals at www.eclipsecon.org

WTP is looking for long and short talks, tutorials, demos, etc.


Outline

WTP Organization JSF Overview and Demo ATF Overview and Demo Dali was presented earlier today; see Shaun Smith for info,

demos, Q&A, etc.


WTP Organization

WTP provides tools for Java Web application development Tools for application developers

Platform for tool developers/adopting companies Graduated subprojects have shipping versions in Callisto

Web Standard Tools – IETF, W3C, OASIS, WS-I, ANSI, etc

J2EE Standard Tools – JCP Incubating subprojects allow new technologies to grow…


WTP Organization

Currently three incubating subprojects: JSF: Java Server Faces tools

Dali: JPA / EJB 3.0 persistence tools

ATF: AJAX-related tools and APIs

What can you do? Try them out – download, watch videos, read docs, etc.

Participate! Join the community via newsgroup; become a committer on code, docs, or website.

Find, report, and/or fix bugs.

Develop products and services based on these tools.


Project Lifecycle

Proposed Created Incubating/milestones ATF (Feedback wanted!) Released (tech preview / pre-1.0) JSF, Dali Graduated Released (1.0 or higher)


Components can incubate, too…

Sybase visual editor contribution inside JST is an example

Outline

WTP Organization JSF Overview and Demo ATF Overview and Demo


ATF provides

Tools to develop any DHTML/AJAX application

Tooling to facilitate use of various AJAX toolkits

Tight integration with existing user interface and development paradigms

Based on / built on WTP

Targets AJAX application developers (users), tool vendors (adopters), and AJAX library authors who want to provide tooling for their runtimes.

Goal is to improve productivity for AJAX developers and to enable 3rd parties to provide high-quality value added features.

AJAX Project Overview


MozillaXULRunner & Javaconnect

AJAX Toolkit Framework are Eclipse Plugins

EECCLLIIPPSSEE

AJAX Toolkit Framework Components

Project and Application Creation Project creation, Drag and Drop application snippets

Embedded Mozilla Browser Run/Debug an Ajax application in the embedded Mozilla browser

Browser Tooling DOM Source view, DOM Inspector, Browser Console, XHRequest

Monitor, and CSS Tools JavaScript Editor

Integrated JavaScript editor with batch and as-you-type syntax validation

JavaScript Debugger Stack frame, variables and script views; breakpoints and browser

control Application Deployment

Deployment of an AJAX application to a server. Personality Builder

Ability to create tooling for new AJAX toolkits (runtime libraries)


Project and Application Creation

Built in support for three AJAX runtimes today Dojo, Rico, and Zimbra

Personality Builder simplifies adding new runtimes

Eclipse Project Integration Static Web, Dynamic Web, or PHP project can be AJAX-enabled

Support can be added to existing projects

Application Creation Wizard Template to create initial AJAX-enabled application

Drag and Drop snippets to source file


Browser Tooling

CSS View Style Rules

Shows the rules and their defined properties Able to edit and add a property Open CSS file for the rule and property Highlights the DOM elements using a selected style rule or

property Computed Styles

Shows every style rule computed by the browser Box Model

Shows the dimensions, x-y coordinates, padding, border, and margin information

Diffs Shows the changes made to CSS rules and properties


JavaScript Editor

Enhanced Editor with Validation Integrated JavaScript editor

Batch and as-you-type syntax validation

Syntax checker based on the Mozilla Rhino engine Validator based on JSLint

Detects undesirable or ambiguous constructs considered to be bad practice

JSLint errors are consider warnings. Drag and Drop snippets to Application Source File


URL Debugging/Running

HTTP or File URL support Able to launch and debug an AJAX application using a URL

Application doesn’t have to reside in eclipse

All tooling supports handling files by URL

Editor Debugger Browser tooling

• Breakpoint Management

User has to manually delete breakpoints

WTP Incubationand Roadmap


Release Roadmap and 2.0 Planning

1.5.x Line: Focused on stability and adopter-readiness of 1.5 Callisto fall update (released 9/29/06) included WTP 1.5.1

Bug fix release WTP 1.5.2 planned for late October

Callisto winter update (early Feb?) will include WTP 1.5.3

Subsequent 1.5.x maintenance releases on an as-needed basis (none planned currently)


Release Roadmap and 2.0 Planning

2.0: Synchronized with Europa release train Coordinated milestones and release candidates

“Preview ready” for EclipseCon ’07

Maintenance packs will include (at least) Europa’s updates

Same release methodology and vehicles as with Callisto

Joint update site, all-in-one bundles, WTP download site, etc.


WTP 2.0 Plan

Enable EE 5 Focus on graduating technologies currently in incubation:

JSF: graduation with WTP 2.0

Dali: graduation with WTP 2.0

Visual editor: graduated component of JST/JSF with WTP 2.0

ATF tech preview late ’06; graduation with WTP 2.0 Alignment with platform and other projects in overlap areas

RDB DTP migration, common undo, etc. Continued improvements for adopters and user support http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Web_Tools_Requirements_2.0
