RAP 1.4 M2 - New and Noteworthy
Here's a list of the most noteworthy things in the milestone build 1.4 M2 which is available for download.
This list shows all bugs that were fixed during this milestone.
New API added
This will make it easier for the community to reuse existing code or
to utilize new features.
Here is a list of API methods added in M2:
Display#getSystemTray()
Tree#getTopItem()
Tree#setTopItem( TreeItem )
Improved iPad support
While RAP was already running on iPad, a number of bugs and glitches
made it barely usable. We fixed many of these problems, mostly issues
with the touch-interface and layouting. Also, a RAP-application can
now be run in fullscreen-mode. Simply touch the "+", select "Add to Home
Screen", and start it from there.
Note that pinch-zoom is disabled in fullscreen-mode.
Some issues remain, but we will continue to improve support for iPad and other mobile devices.

New Default Theme
After introducing the Business and Fancy Design with
RAP 1.3, RWT gets a
new default theme with this milestone. The new default theme is a
migration of the existing Business theme. The old theme is still
available as a separate bundle called
New Default Theme: Classic Theme:
To activate the classic theme simply add the bundle to an exsiting launch configuration and change the servlet name to "classic". An alternative way to use the classic theme is to create an own branding and set the
org.eclipse.rap.rwt.theme.classic
