Hello All

The discussion went on other topic so renaming it. (Quoted, incorrect grammar makes think)

If there would be voting on making JSDT top level project independent of WTP, I would vote up. Meanwhile there is *Bug 424937* <https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=424937> -New forum for JavaScript language or Web platform.
Please comment/vote.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=424937

JavaScript server side is not only Node.js, there is also PhantomJS (great lightweight headless browser, good for automated testing, supports WebDriver ), MongoDB. All 3 use V8 engine from WebKit. And now Java 8 Nashorn engine with good promises.

Now as Web became platform, a browser with developer addon became IDE.
Those browser are written in C/C++, Java inside browser did not succeed early before. What should Java do? Make 100% Java-based browser. Those attempts were done 10-15 years before,
but they failed because of big performance difference.
But now as Java, and JavaScript engines are so close to C/C++, it does not matter what language to use per se.
It is libraries and infrastructure that make difference.

I would love to discuss 100% Java browser (email me anytime, especially if you know someone doing/researching that).
Of course such browser would have super features exposed for Java plugins.
And such component, even if implemented very simplistic, would be great replacement/alternative for OS browser
that Eclipse currently uses by default.

(One more topic related to desktop is mobile. Maybe in some years Android will go desktop, but I hope to see Eclipse on Android tablet before that)

BTW, for the record, JSDT is critical for Node.js and Qt as well. Cordova is 
just another one of these.

I don?t think there?s much benefit to moving them. As long as the rules put in 
place by the WTP PMC don?t prevent us or make it hard to do what we need to do.

And Desktop is definitely a thing anymore. You?re likely typing at one right 
now. And you?re running your JSDT on one. ;). They?re just reverting back to 
their roots when Workstations were king for content creators and engineers.

WTP at some level.

I do not think project dependencies should be a big factor on selecting top 
level project. but I agree the progress of JSDT is crucial for the Hybrid 
Mobile tools so WTP needs to be involved.

What do you think the benefits of moving JSDT and SSE out of WTP would be?


BTW, I find it hard to think of Mobile as a thing anymore. The programming 
technologies we?re running there are almost all taken from the desktop, 
including HTML5 and friends. I remember our old friend Doug Gaff mentioning at 
an early EclipseCon that this convergence was going to happen, and it certainly 
has.


Agreed but I think it is the other way around.. Desktop is not a thing anymore

Unfortunately, Eclipse no longer has an obvious top level project for mobile.
For Cordova tools (I called it Hybrid Mobile Tooling actually) , I was leaning 
towards Tools Project because WTP does not mix with mobile much.

Doug,

I am curious as to why you think WTP would be the natural home for Cordova 
tooling? To be clear, I don't personally care. I'm just having a hard time 
making the connection.

No doubt that WTP hosts most of the web technology related tools and JS EPP
would be a great addition. However I think WTP has stagnated and could not
pass beyond JEE and server based technologies while the web technologies
did. This may all be my perception but WTP charter[1] talking in detail
about server based apps on scope does not help either. I have nothing
against server based apps, I am still a committer for WTP Server tools, but
WTP needs less server and JEE and more node.js, cordova to change its
stagnated perception.

Hi everyone,

Sorry for not replying earlier, but I must agree with Doug,  WTP already
contains the static web technology tools mentioned (JSDT, css, html) that
has recently seen an uptick in activity  :)
If the question is around flexible packaging options, up until recently we
offered the Javascript EPP(limited resource and interest forced us to
reture this option).
This could be seen as a foundation for a mobile subproject etc...    WTP
would of course welcome this community  :)

Thanks

Well, you would use the editors from the Web Developer Tools as a base for
building Cordova apps. I guess we could add the relatively small Cordova
build tools support in a Tools project.

The bigger point though is that more and more environments are based on
HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. We need to make sure the tooling we have at
Eclipse can meet all those needs. If you have an idea on a project
structure that can help with that, it would certainly help.

Yeap, guilty on running a desktop. I do not think this should be further
discussed without beer though :)
