Re: [Springframework-rcp-dev] close method in PageComponent

[jwray <jon...@fi...>]

Peter,

thanks for the reply, that clarifies things, and it'll be no problem
bringing the JIDE code back in sync. with HEAD. 

As for project interest, I'm still using it in an old internal project at
work and I'm in the prototyping stage of another newer application. I also
still get help requests regarding the JIDE integration code, so there's
still interest out there. 

I really believe the RCP project has a lot of hidden potential, especially
when considered in conjunction with the rest of the Spring infrastructure.
For example, in my new project I'm using an embedded Mule ESB for both
external service communication and internal event propagation. Mule's
support for spring events, and thus by extension Spring RCP, made this
integration very straightforward and powerful.
