This page contains links to applications built on the Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP). The listings here are intended to get you started in finding out more about products and projects that use the Eclipse RCP. You can also view a pdf presentation of RCP based applications.
We have also prepared some case studies of organizations that are using Eclipse RCP. Hopefully it will provide you a better understanding of the benefits from using Eclipse RCP for your application platform.
We'd like these pages to be useful to you - so please email us your pointers and comments!

Kalypso - Bjoernsen Beratende Kalypso Homepage Kalypso is a modern software package for numerical modelling, currently available for hydrological and hydraulic modelling, flood forecasting, and flood risk assessment. It provides a framework for editing model data and running model computations within a homogenous User Interface. Two key features are Desktop-GIS and Desktop-Observation&Measurement. The close coupling of geospatial and measurement data in Kalypso allows . The Kalypso Framework supports the integration of numerical models just by specifying their data-structure and their input/output behaviour applying standards of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). Any legacy modelling program is a potential candidate for being plugged in Kalypso with minimal programming effort. Specific functionality such as computation, data management and user management is delivered through web services from the server application. |

Komo - Michael Schmidt Komo Homepage Komo (Hawaiian for "enter") is a standalone RCP application that is intended to be the foundation for developing database client user interfaces, thus serving as a rapid application development tool. It is customized for use with PostgreSQL but minor changes would allow it to be used with other client-server RDBMS systems. Komo includes basic program functions, takes advantage of many RCP UI features (searchable help, splash screen, welcome screen, minimize to toolbar, wizards, and preference pages), implements database connectivity with JDBC, and has threaded basic database utilities (reindex, vacuum, backup, restore). To develop customized client UIs, developers would import Komo into their Eclipse workspace, add application-specific features (viewers, editors, reports) and modify the existing branding elements. Komo is freeware released under the BSD license and is available (Windows demo or source code only) at pgfoundry.org. So, "enter" client UI development and "enter" your database with Komo! |

| Relations - Benno Luthiger Relations Homepage Relations is an Eclipse RCP application for the visualization of terms and concepts. The Relations application is a tool for knowledge management. Its aim is to visualize and contextualize concepts. This is possible if items (e.g. terms) can be easily created and, above all, related to other items. By a visualization of such relations, the context of a term becomes comprehensible. The existing application (in VisualBasic) will be migrated to Eclipse and open sourced. |

WiredReach - WiredReach WiredReach Homepage WiredReach is a universal content sharing platform built on a set of open standards and technologies (Eclipse, JXTA, RDF, RSS, and XMPP) that allows users to selectively share content with others in a completely decentralized and secure manner. The term "content" itself is very loosely defined in the platform, and it can include things like presence, blogs, bookmarks, documents, calendars, music, photos... virtually any type of social media. Traditional content sharing and collaboration applications are usually built using proprietary protocols and/or as closed networks which limit their applicability and scope. Our vision, instead, is to enable an open collaboration network (the User-Centric Web) - one that blurs the boundaries between the desktop and the web and that can be extended by anyone. To that effect, we will also be releasing our core platform under an open source license. |
