Eclipse UI Forms Description

Enhances SWT, UI Forms, Data Binding and puts them together to offer a profound framework Eclipse UI Forms are very limited for business application demands; Eclipse UI Forms enhances SWT, UI Forms, Data Binding and puts them together to offer a profound framework and best practice for creating, binding an validating forms using RCP/RAP Here are some key features of "Eclipse UI Forms": · dead-simple development of forms with data binding and validation · avoids low level error prone code e.g. for listener registration/deregistration · 80/20: 80% of use case is written with one line using default values, e.g. if you bind a text field to a java.util.Date property, the text field will automatically be converted to a date and vice versa; if no date is entered an error marker will be shown · 100% based on Eclipse standards, no new concepts, just a thin layer on top, e.g. above feature is available through standard Eclipse Databinding, but using a unifying API so the developer need not know any details about update strategies, converters and stuff · automatic binding of enum properties, e.g. binding against a combo box will automatically fill the combo list with all possible enum values and do all the low-level sync stuff. It really is one line of code ! · automatic handling of Table Viewing and Editing, just configure the columns and related properties and if they should be editable, the editor type · can run standalone, on osgi and *RAP · Forms can be easily embedded into Eclipse Editors, Viewers, Wizards and Dialogs · makes no assumptions on your data model, through a ModelAdapter all data models can be used which can fire change events · model adapters can deliver additional information, e.g. *extract validation constraints like field-lengths, regular expressions for email etc. directly from your specific data model or provide possible values for object references via range adapters (this is cool for EMF-based models) What's New in This Release: · separated sdk features into runtime feature and examplestests features · fixed packaging bugs related to sources · included sources for all plugins · added unbind() methods to validation manager · fixed bug in emf adapter which disabled mixed model usage · allow form without header by passing null title
