Preparing to deploy a Gantt chart component

To build and deploy a JViews Gantt chart component, you must first consider the manner of deployment and the functional type of the application.

A JViews Gantt chart application can be deployed as:

  • A Swing application

  • Eclipse/RCP application

  • A Thin Client

This section discusses deployment as a Swing application.

An Eclipse/RCP application with JViews Gantt is implemented like a Swing application. Additional considerations are explained in Using JViews products in Eclipse RCP applications in Developing with the SDK.

See Developing JViews Gantt JavaScript Web applications in Building Web Applications in Developing with the SDK for how to deploy an application as a Thin Client.

Note

Items on the Interactions tab of the Designer, such as scroll bar options, do not work in thin-client environments. For information on using interactors with thin clients, see Installing interactors in a Gantt chart.
