Next Generation of Eclipse Databinding
About 10 years ago Eclipse Databinding started to evolve and became one of the most powerful databinding frameworks for Java and even non Eclipse projects started using it.
For the Eclipse Neon release vogella, Google and others work on renewing the API in terms of generifying the code, making general use of new Java 8 language features, replacing old binding mechanisms with modern reactive binding implementations and a lot more.
The talk will give an introduction of the power of Eclipse Databinding and how it makes your life as Eclipse RCP developer much easier. After this introduction I will present the new features, which we implemented for Eclipse Neon and explain how you can use and benefit from these new features.
In addition to that I will also explain how you can make meaningful use of Java 8 together with Eclipse Databinding, even before Eclipse Neon.
