Eclipse Scout New and Noteworthy
Simple. Stable. Flexible
- Eclipse Scout is a mature and open framework for modern, service oriented business applications.
- It 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.
Scout 3.8 Overview (Juno)
Scout has started integration into Eclipse Juno builds. Besides many bugfixes some new features have been implemented.
Runtime
Scout Web UI support based on RAP
With version 3.8 Scout supports building web applications in addition to the previously supported Swing and SWT desktop technologies. Two scenarios are supported:
- Migrate existing Scout Desktop applications into the browser with minimal effort.
- Build new Scout applications that simultaneously run in the browser and as rich applications on the desktop.
This is possible because Eclipse Scout features a clean separation of the application model from the UI Layer (also see this wiki article).
Benefits for the developer: The Scout developer builds the application only once. Everything can be done using existing Scout/Java/Eclipse development know how (no new framework to learn, no HTML, CSS or JavaScript to learn).
Benefits to the end user: The end user of Scout applications experiences an identical look and feel for both the web and the desktop application.
Outlook: The Web UI support is only the next step of the Eclipse Scout "Multi Frontend" strategy. In addition to business application on the desktop and in the web, we are also planning to support mobile devices in the near future.
SVG Field as an additional UI Component
The new SVG field enhances Eclipse Scout with the ability to display interactive diagrams and graphics that work on both the desktop and the web environment.

SDK
Detailed Release Notes
The link below points to the Scout Juno release notes that also indicate when and where Scout applications based on Scout Indigo need to go through migration steps.
The motivation for this guide goes back to the following Scout forum post. As soon as the content on this wiki page starts to make sense a point from the post to this page should be added.
Scout 3.7 Overview (Indigo)
Eclipse Scout is a new Eclipse project officially released under the EPL for the first time with the Indigo release train.
New in Scout Core
- Column Filter
New column filter feature. Scout Tables now have a column filter feature that allows simple content based filtering. Right click on a column header cell and choose menu "Column Filter .."

Introduction of a memory policy for Scout clients. Based on the memory policy defined a scout client may uses different caching mechanisms for the construction and handling of outlines.
- Dynamic Log-Level Setting
Log-Levels can be defined/changed at runtime for Scout applications.
New in Scout SDK
