Since Selectors use most of the Higgins Components, work on harmonizing the Higgins selectors into a single architecture would be a huge step towards overall Higgins architecture harmonization/convergence.
A good first step in converging the selectors is start by harmonizing the GTK and Cocoa Selector and the Adobe AIR Selector.
Top Level Diagram
Notes
- Introduce the notion of a "Component Set" -- a set of components
- This architecture would run on Windows, Mac OSX, Linux and (with further work) potentially smart phones
- This architecture should support IE, Firefox and Safari browsers
- The "Selector UI" component would be either GTK, Cocoa or AIR-based, but the underlying services would be common.
To Do
The first objective is to perfectly align the existing [Components] with the above diagram.
- Jeesmon: Split the shared tcpserver project into multiple projects to align with above. Suggestions for new names:
- org.eclipse.higgins.hss for http://wiki.eclipse.org/Components#Higgins_Selector_Selector_.28HSS.29
- org.eclipse.higgins.hss.manager for http://wiki.eclipse.org/Components#HSS_Manager
- org.eclipse.higgins.hss.launcher for http://wiki.eclipse.org/Components#Higgins_Launcher
- org.eclipse.higgins.hbx.ie (NOT hbxie! (taken)) for http://wiki.eclipse.org/Components#Higgins_Browser_Extension_.28HBX.29
- Jeesmon: Merge the HSS connectors into .higgins.hss
