Scout/Demo
The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/.
Applications
A lot of the applications mentioned here are currently under construction (for example made for older scout versions...). We are working on refactoring them (single Git Repository, build with CBI, direct download from binaries).
Widgets
Small Demo Application (client-side only) that displays the common scout fields.

Bahbah Chat Application
Presented at EclipseCon and EclipseCon Europe in 2012. More information in this blog article about BahBahChat
Repository: http://github.com/BSI-Business-Systems-Integration-AG/org.eclipsescout.demo/tree/3.8/bahbah
Talks:

- EclipseCon Europe 2012: Tutorial [1.5 MB] "A Multi-Frontend Chat Application based on Eclipse Scout".
Minifig Application
The minifig Application was created for EclipseCon 2013, to illustrate how Scout Applications could be tested. It is a small client-server application, using The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/. and The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/.
3 testing possibilities are illustrated:
- Plain JUnit tests
- JUnit test with a Scout context
- UI-Test using Jubula
The application is build with maven and tycho. Tests are executed using the Scout test runner.

- The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/.
iBug Application
The iBug application displays the most recent Bugzilla bugs in the UI. The primary goal of this application is to demonstrate the Scout mobile support coming with the Kepler release. As secondary goal it can be used to show the The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/..

Git Repository
The project is hosted on GitHub: scout demo project page.
Clone URL: https://github.com/BSI-Business-Systems-Integration-AG/org.eclipsescout.demo.git
Branches
Different git branches allow the possibility to work simultaneously on different Eclipse Scout versions with different Eclipse Runtime Versions:
- master: Luna - Scout 3.10 with Eclipse 4.3 (TODO: will be Eclipse 4.4)
- 3.9: Kepler - Scout 3.9 with Eclipse 4.3
- 3.8: Juno - Scout 3.8 with Eclipse 4.2
Structure
The idea of the structure is to share commons parts across the demo applications (CBI Build, configuration files). This is a proposal:
Git Repository: org.eclipsescout.demo
|
+---pom.xml (root pom, has [1.1] as maven module).
+---build
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.master <-- [1] preferences, version, plugin management...
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.parent <-- [1.1] extends [1] und has {[1.2], [1.3], [2], [3], [4]} as module (aggregation)
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.repository <-- [1.2] p2 update site
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.settings <-- .prefs files for demo projects
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.target <-- [1.3] Target Plattform for all projects.
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.webapp <-- Template for building the .war
|
+---bahbah
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.parent <-- aggregation for bahbah
| | \---pom.xml <-- [2] extends [1]
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.client
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.security
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.server
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.shared
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.ui.rap
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.ui.swing
| \---org.eclipsescout.demo.bahbah.ui.swt
|
+---jaxws
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.jaxws.parent <-- aggregation for jaxws
| | \---pom.xml <-- [3] extends [1]
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.jaxws.client
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.jaxws.database
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.jaxws.server
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.jaxws.shared
| +---org.eclipsescout.demo.jaxws.ui.swing
| \---org.eclipsescout.demo.jaxws.ui.swt
|
\---widgets
+---org.eclipsescout.demo.widgets.parent <-- aggregation for widget
| \---pom.xml <-- [4] extends [1]
+---org.eclipsescout.demo.widgets-feature
+---org.eclipsescout.demo.widgets.client
+---org.eclipsescout.demo.widgets.shared

Clone, Build and Run the Demos
Clone Locally
Before cloning the demo applications to your Scout installation, make sure to:
- Successfully create and run a hello world application according to the Hello World tutorial.
- Install the Rayo package
- Install the Docx4j package
For the cloning, and opening of a demo application you go through the following steps:
- Open the Eclipse IDE with a new workspace
- Add the Git Repository Exploring perspective to Eclipse
- Clone the demo application repo to a local directory
- Import the desired demo application
Add the Git Repository Exploring
Add text.
Clone the Demo Application Repository
Add text.
Import a Demo Application
Add text.
Build Locally
The chosen project setup allows to build the Scout demo apps locally using Apache Maven. If you are new to Maven (or don't have a running Maven installation yet), have a look at Maven in 5 Minutes for installation instructions.
To verify if you have installed maven type in your console
mvn --version
And you should get some meaningful output similar to
Apache Maven 3.0.5 (r01de14724cdef164cd33c7c8c2fe155faf9602da; 2013-02-19 14:51:28+0100) Maven home: D:\apache-maven-3.0.5\bin\.. Java version: 1.6.0_25, vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. Java home: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\jre Default locale: nl_NL, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "windows 7", version: "6.1", arch: "amd64", family: "windows"
Then, in your local demo repository change into the main directory ...\local_repos\demo that contains the root pom.xml (according to the directory organisation shown above) and start the maven build:
C:\...\local_repos\scout_demo>mvn clean install [INFO] Scanning for projects... ... [INFO] Eclipse Scout Demo - Root ......................... SUCCESS [0.047s] [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD SUCCESS [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 9:41.939s [INFO] Finished at: Wed Sep 11 17:36:44 CEST 2013 [INFO] Final Memory: 57M/247M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ C:\...\local_repos\scout_demo>
The interesting artefacts are then found in the following target directories:
1. C:\...\local_repos\scout_demo\XY\org.eclipsescout.demo.XY.server.product\target\XY_server.war 2. C:\...\local_repos\scout_demo\XY\org.eclipsescout.demo.XY.ui.rap.product\target\XY.war 3. C:\...\local_repos\scout_demo\XY\org.eclipsescout.demo.XY.ui.swt.product\target\XY.zip 4. C:\...\local_repos\scout_demo\XY\org.eclipsescout.demo.XY.ui.swing.product\target\XY.zip
In the above paths replace XY by the name of the demo application (i.e. 'bahbah', 'ibug', 'minicrm', etc.). The above artefacts represent the following products:
- The Scout server war file. It is used by all Scout client applications (desktop, web, mobile).
- The Scout RAP client war file. It is used to provide the Scout web, tablet, and mobile clients.
- The Scout SWT client. To start the client, unzip this file and start the contained XY executable file.
- The Scout Swing client. To start the client, unzip this file and start the contained XY executable file.
Before starting any of the clients, deploy the war files to your web server. For this, you can follow the steps described in tutorial Deploy a Scout application (skipping the step to export the Scout application).
Configurations
Line Endings
We want to have Unix Line endings in the repository. Try to configure your Git client (EGit, GitExtensions, Git Bash...) in order to rewrite the windows line endings to Unix line endings on commit.
core.autocrlf=input
In the Eclipse Preferences dialog the line ending setting can be accessed as follows
