We currently have a preliminary Admin UI in Gyrex. This is based on a Toolkit abstraction with a renderer implemented in GWT. Although the idea is not bad it turns out that this is quite a bit development effort for each new widget we want to use.

Therefore we sat together and Mike wrote a little prototype for an Admin UI in RAP. RAP is an established Eclipse technology and we should be good citizens and re-use Eclipse projects whenever possible.

Mike, assigning this to you. When you have a minute, can you attach a screenshot of your current work?

BTW, the issue you run into with the missing images is like because of bug 251096 and bug 241210. I added bug 241210 as a blocker because we definitely need this support for 1.0.

On the screen shot You see our first integration of a RAP based admin ui for Gyrex. The layout is based on the business example, You find in the bundle org.eclipse.rap.design.example in version 1.4.0.20101109-2119.

In the first step we implemented the new bundle org.eclipse.gyrex.admin.ui to the Gyrex platform and designed extension points to extend the menu items and their related content.

Just added the first implemetation of the new rap based framework to administrate the Gyrex platform for evaluation. It also contains three example pages to configure jetty settings, platform logging and a page to view and manipulate registered repositories.

You only have to import the attached projects to your Gyrex workspace and apply the patch. I've integated the system in the gyrex.launch configuration - after startup you'll may view the result under http://localhost:3110/adminui.

Thank you for trying and feedback. Please stay kind and amicable - that's my first patch and I'm still a little confused ;-)

Mike, thanks a lot for your work. I took the patch and reworked the API further in order to no expose a lot API in the beginning. I'll open a separate bug for the remaining issues to look at for M6/M7.
