4.0 out of 5 stars A good introduction to a new Eclipse Technology, December 30, 2008
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Eclipse Rich Ajax Platform: Bringing Rich Client into the Web (Firstpress) (Paperback)
I've been following Eclipse RAP since I first saw the demo at EclipseCon 2008. The technology is very promising and the emphasis on single-sourcing is a time saver. This book is an introduction to Eclipse RAP. Don't expect an in depth review of the technology.

Chapters on how RAP is setup relative to the whole Eclipse Platform stack and comparison to Eclipse RCP is very helpful. In addition chapter that covered whether RAP will work for a particular projects was something I was interested in. I especially liked the example RAP application that author walks you through so you can get started using RAP pretty quickly.

So, if you are looking for a in depth discussion of RAP technology this is not the book yet. It is a book for someone who is not sure if the technology will work for a particular project and wants q gentle introduction. I do look forward to more in depth book on Eclipse RAP as it promises to be a very interesting technology to use.

Also, the book would have been half the size if font that was used would not have been 13 or 14 px - seems too big for me.
