Re: NetBeans Platform as enterprise application deployed from glassfish

Hy,
Thank you for answering so fast.
What I would like to is to have both benefits :
- Benefits from the NB platform for GUI and RCP
- Benefits from EJB
- Benfits from the deployment from a GF server
So, if my french level of english let me understand well, I agree with
your proposal.
To be sure I'll formulate it in another way.
I would like to have a NetBeans RCP app in a EA project instead of the
usual JavaSwing App Client.
Am I explaining well my needs?
regards
make me

Ouch, I don't really like "tricks" that lowering the benefits of the

Here, I don't understand well. You say that netbeans app will not be IN
but you also said that the frontend (Netbeans RCP) will be in a
different project.
Another question, when you're talking about a shered set of code to
communicate, do you means for example that it won't be possible to
inject EJB by annotations in the nbm modules?
Thanks for sharing your expertise.
