Server API
The web client is represented on the server by the class org.eclipse.rap.rwt.client.WebClient. (Since RAP 2.0.) An instance can be obtained via org.eclipse.rap.rwt.RWT#getClient(). Besides the methods specified by the org.eclipse.rap.rwt.client.Client interface, it also provides a number of constants that may be used in the configuration map of an application entrypoint.
The WebClient#getService() method can be used to obtain the follwing supported services:

Diferent clients may support different services. If you target multiple clients, check for null before using a service.
