View source for Shared Editing

Collaborative editors/editing is an important application area for Eclipse, the Rich Client Platform, and ECF. Eclipse and Eclipse RCP are ideal frameworks for creating structured editors of many kinds:  source code editors, graphical model editors, xml editors, html editors, etc.  With ECF, it is possible to add both real-time and non real-time collaboration for such editors.

ECF will provide frameworks and exemplary shared editors.  We have the following efforts working together:

*Newer Efforts (2007 and ongoing)
**[[RT Shared Editing|Real-time Shared Editing]]
**[[Sharing Editor Selections]]
**[[DocShare Plugin]]

*Older Efforts (2006 and prior)
* [[Graphical Shared-Editor Example Application]] - A simple graphical network model editor that allows multiple participants to simultaneously add, position, and connect simple graphical models
* [[Example Shared Text Editor]] - A collaborative text editor for doing real-time editing of a text document
