| − | = Eclipse Scout 3.9 adds Support for Mobile Applications =
| + | The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/. |
| − | | + | |
| − | Scout is a framework to build business applications based on the Eclipse platform.
| + | |
| − | So far, Scout client applications included support for Swing or SWT to build desktop applications,
| + | |
| − | and Eclipse RAP for web applications.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | New with the Kepler release, Scout has added support for creating mobile applications that run on tablets and smart phones.
| + | |
| − | Thanks to the clean separation of the Scout application model from a specific UI technology Scout applications may now be deployed on mobile phones, as web applications or to the desktop with a single code base.
| + | |
| − | This feature greatly reduces maintenance costs for larger applications that need to be available on multiple frontends.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Being independent of specific UI technologies is one of Scout's major assests.
| + | |
| − | Among other benefits, it reduces the long term risks of "marrying" large and important business applications to the "wrong" UI technology to almost zero.
| + | |
| − | In fact, the default setup of Scout applications enforces the separation of business code from UI technology codes.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | As this article has been written for software developers without prior knowledge of Scout we want to provide a hands-on introduction based on the Scout package provided on eclipse.org/downloads.
| + | |
| − | To install the Scout package you only need working installation of a JDK version 6 or 7.
| + | |
