Create an API that can be used for RWT application context initialization in arbitrary environments. With environments I mean standard webapp, OSGi bundle, integration with Spring etc. The basic idea is to have ApplicationConfigurator interface that provides a configure( Application application ) callback method. The application instance that is passed to the callback method provides the possibility to set application specific handlers and infos (e.g. application.setServiceHandler( myHandler )). This mechanism will replace the current configuration mechanisms in use. The ApplicationConfigurer will be registered as servlet context init parameter in web.xml or as service in an OSGi bundle.
The API described above has been contributed in RAP 1.5M1, and revised in 1.5M7. The interface is now called ApplicationConfiguration (which describes its purpose, not its functional principle). It can be registered as servlet context init parameter or as OSGi service.
