  • Scout applications may run on diffent frontend technologies (Swing, SWT, Web) without any changes in the source code
  • Scout substantially boosts developer productivity and is simple to learn.
  • User friendly applications are straight forward to implement with Scout’s comprehensive set of user interface components.
  • Completely based on Java/Eclipse, Scout Applications are easy to integrate in most IT environments.

Features

APIs

We certify that the public Scout APIs in this release are production quality. As a significant amount of commercial customer applications are based on these APIs we evaluate/communicate changes accordingly (e.g. [2] or [3])

End-of-Life

We have replaced Scout Apache Axis Support by JAX-WS Support in Scout 3.8.0. The prior discussion did not turn up any objections to this.
