When developing with Eclipse 3.5 or newer, it's possible to use a concept called a [http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.pde.doc.user/concepts/target.htm target platform].  The [http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.pde.doc.user/concepts/target.htm target platform] specifies the set of bundles used to compile and build against within the Eclipse PDE (plugin development environment).  The default target platform is Eclipse itself, but the target platform can be set to any desired set of bundles.  One way to develop applications that use some or all of ECF is to add the ECF SDK to your target platform.  Then you are able to develop against and build using ECF functionality.

The ECF Remote Services bundles are included in the ECF SDK, which can be downloaded or installed via p2. If the ECF 3.2 SDK is installed into Eclipse, then the ECF Remote Services bundles are installed, but also a number of Eclipse views and perspectives are made available for use within Eclipse.

ECF Remote Services Bundles

Some consumers of ECF may be interested in using only the ECF implementation of OSGi 4.2 Remote Services...and not all the other ECF APIs and bundles. There are several ways of doing such development...one way is to add the SDK into your target platform, and the following page describes how to do so:

Adding ECF SDK to Target Platform

Another way to develop remote services with ECF support is to load some or all ECF projects into your workspace. Here is a project set file that has just the implementation of OSGi Remote Services. To use this project set file to load the ECF Remote Services projects:

  1. Save this file to local disk
  2. Within Eclipse, Import this as a Team Project Set...i.e. via Import...->Team Project Set->file
