Face to Face meeting at EclipseCon 2010
Attendees
- Motorola (Christian Kurzke, Eric Cloninger, Ruth, Daniel Franco, Guilherme)
- Nokia (Ronnie King, Gorkem (lead ERCP), Warren Paul)
- RIM (Adam Abramski, Jon Dearden, Ken Wallis)
- Symbian (Paul Beusterien)
- Eclipse Foundation (Ian, Doug Schaeffer)
Project representatives:
- MTJ: Christian Kurzke
- Sequoyah: Eric Cloninger
- CDT: Doug Schaeffer
- ERCP: Gorkem
Agenda
Roll Call and Review of the Agenda (5 Minutes)
Pulsar review of scope
In the 2009 review, we had 3 main topics: MTJ, CDT and WebTooling, from which we accomplished the MTJ package.
Due to significant changes in the mobile landscape, we should refocus. maybe:
- Java (incl. J2ME, RIM, Android)
- Native (Symbian, Android Native, Meego?)
- Web (Symbian Web UI, etc.)
Ronnie: Should we maintain the focus of Pulsar on a "product".
DougS: proposed a new "mobile" Platform focused plugin fest.
John D: What is our long-term goal, are we creating products or frameworks.
Ian: Successful example: Eclipse "Team Provider" Framework
Ken: Pulsar is solving a too "high level" problem, common code is not used enough. Pulsar should be more of a "portal"
EricC: Who creates a product?: RIM, not strongly branded bundled, and includes a update site. Motodev Studio, installer & update site, Nokia: similar, branded tool.
Driving Commonality
what would member companies want from Pulsar
Nokia: Interest in MTJ (for S40) and Native Symbian development. Also discussons with Meego.
- interest in Native, C++ development:
- Project Build (signing, multiple targets),
- Discovery of devices (over BT, USB, wifi, etc),
- Publishing to developer portals
- tooling around Meego
- MTJ
- MIDP 3 support, which would include CDC support
Symbian Foundation:
- Native - similar to Nokia.
- Web Tooling
- Symbian is looking to fund development of a Web Development environment
- Chrominum based, support development cycle including packaging, deploy, debug, etc.
- very cross platform.
- Ian reached out to JIL (no interest) and BONDI (curious)
- Symbian is looking to fund development of a Web Development environment
Sony Ericsson:
- currently doesnt have a branded product
- interest to improve Android Tooling
- e.g. Profiling, Code coverage, UI development
RIM:
- Java
- J2ME+Rim
- Web
- Widgets (packaged HTML/Javascript) packaging, deployment
- First class application on device
- shares packaging, signing, etc. (not using MTJ components, but uses legacy RIM code)
- uses JSDT, XUL runner
- has proprietary debugging protocol between JavaScript engine and IDE (emulator working, device planned)
- implementing JIL, own widgets are W3C inspired
MOTOROLA:
Android Tooling
- Native Build, Packaging
- possible Flash/Air will be of interest
- managing Device Specific SDK add-ons
- sub-SDK level, API package level
- common launch config
- static code analysis (possibly with Sony Ericsson)
Possible common features
- Possible SDK management
- Signing
- Common UI code/Frameworks for common tasks
- Could possibly be shared from WTP project, which already has abstractions / connectors to server infrastructure
Architecture
We need a high level (~18 - 24 month?) goal which we go towards.
Android / Java seems like a high importance
- How is Android different?
- JDT is focal
Roadmap / Architecture
Ronnie: We should have domain experts for 3 areas: Native, Java, Web. Each expert (team) should address - name desired shared functionality
DougS: Identify Missing vs. Duplicate "stuff".
Ronnie: Bring back REQUIREMENTS to working group - e.g. in 1 month: Granularity - e.g. "Easy device Discovery"
PItch by John Dearden, RIM: Block Diagram of proposed Architecture for Java/Web/Native and common. -> John to share on mailing list
Can we review John's slides, Christian to set up Google Docs account and share Johns slides online. Ian: Goal - Review, feedback in 2 weeks from now.
Overview of Sequoyah
EricC:
- Created a new project as a hope for new Mobile code
- Moved code from TML into this, removed the "linux" barrier.
- Pulsar PAckage SDK discovery has been moved over. Build scripts are updated and Helios codebase.
- Pulsar Package builds now use Sequoyah Components.
