Architecture
Eclipse uses plug-ins to provide all the functionality within and on top of the runtime system.
Its runtime system is based on Equinox, an implementation of the OSGi core framework
specification. In addition to allowing the Eclipse Platform to be extended using other
programming languages, such as C and Python, the plug-in framework allows the Eclipse
Platform to work with typesetting languages like LaTeX[29] and networking applications such
as telnet and database management systems. The plug-in architecture supports writing any
desired extension to the environment, such as for configuration management. Java and CVS
support is provided in the Eclipse SDK, with support for other version control systems
provided by third-party plug-ins.
With the exception of a small run-time kernel, everything in Eclipse is a plug-in. This means
that every plug-in developed integrates with Eclipse in exactly the same way as other plugins; in this respect, all features are "created equal". Eclipse provides plug-ins for a wide
variety of features, some of which are through third parties using both free and commercial
8

models. Examples of plug-ins include for UML, for Sequence and other UML diagrams, a
plug-in for DB Explorer, and many others. The Eclipse SDK includes the Eclipse Java
development tools (JDT), offering an IDE with a built-in incremental Java compiler and a full
model of the Java source files. This allows for advanced refactoring techniques and code
analysis. The IDE also makes use of a workspace, in this case a set of metadata over a flat
filespace allowing external file modifications as long as the corresponding workspace
"resource" is refreshed afterwards.
Eclipse implements the graphical control elements of the Java toolkit called SWT, whereas
most Java applications use the Java standard Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) or Swing.
Eclipse's user interface also uses an intermediate graphical user interface layer called JFace,
which simplifies the construction of applications based on SWT. Eclipse was made to run on
Wayland during a GSoC-Project in 2014. Language packs being developed by the "Babel
project" provide translations into over a dozen natural languages.

Rich Client Platform

Eclipse provides the Rich Client Platform (RCP) for developing general purpose applications.
The following components constitute the rich client platform:

Equinox OSGi a standard bundling framework.

Core platform boot Eclipse, run plug-ins.

Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT) a portable widget toolkit.

JFace viewer classes to bring model view controller programming to SWT,

file buffers, text handling, text editors.

Eclipse Workbench views, editors, perspectives, wizards.

Examples of rich client applications based on Eclipse are:

IBM Notes 8 and 9

Novell/NetIQ Designer for Identity Manager

Apache Directory Studio

Remote Component Environment

Server platform
Eclipse supports development for Tomcat, GlassFish and many other servers and is often
capable of installing the required server (for development) directly from the IDE. It supports
remote debugging, allowing the user to watch variables and step through the code of an
application that is running on the attached server.
9

Web Tools Platform

The Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) project is an extension of the Eclipse platform with
tools for developing Web and Java EE applications. It includes source and graphical editors
for a variety of languages, wizards and built-in applications to simplify development, and
tools and APIs to support deploying, running, and testing apps.[32]

Modelling platform
The Modeling project contains all the official projects of the Eclipse Foundation focusing on
model-based development technologies. They are all compatible with the Eclipse Modeling
Framework created by IBM. Those projects are separated in several categories: Model
Transformation, Model Development Tools, Concrete Syntax Development, Abstract Syntax
Development, Technology and Research, and Amalgam.
Model Transformation projects uses EMF based models as an input and produce either a
model or text as an output. Model to model transformation projects includes ATL, an open
source transformation language and toolkit used to transform a given model or to generate a
new model from a given EMF model. Model to text transformation projects contains
Acceleo, an implementation of MOFM2T, a standard model to text language from the OMG.
Acceleo is an open source code generator that can generate any textual language (Java, PHP,
Python, etc.) from EMF based models defined with any metamodel (UML, SysML, etc.).
Model Development Tools projects are implementations of modeling standard used in the
industry like UML or OCL and their toolkit. Among those projects can be found
implementations of the following standards:

UML

SysML

OCL

BPMN

IMM

SBVR

XSD

NEDA

The Concrete Syntax Development project contains the Graphical ModelingFramework, an

Eclipse-based framework dedicated to the graphical representation of EMF based models.The
Abstract Syntax Development project hosts the Eclipse Modeling Framework, core of most
of the modeling project of the Eclipse Foundation and the framework available for EMF like
10

CDO, EMF query or EMF validation.Technology and Research projects are prototypes of
Modeling project, this project is used to host all the modeling projects of the Eclipse
Foundation during their incubation phase. Amalgam provides the packaging and integration
between all the available modeling tools for the Eclipse package dedicated to modeling tools

Extensions
Eclipse supports a rich selection of extensions, adding support for Python via pydev, Android
development via Google's ADT, JavaFX support via e(fx)clipse, and many others at the
Eclipse Marketplace, as well as JavaScript and jQuery. Valable is a Vala plug-in for Eclipse.

Alternative distributions
A number of alternative distributions exist in the Eclipse project.

Eclipse PDT (PHP Development Tools)

The PHP (PHP hypertext Preprocessor) Development Tools project provides a PHP
Development Tools framework for the Eclipse platform. The project encompasses all
development components, including code-completion, develop PHP and facilitate
extensibility. It leverages the existing Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) and Dynamic
Languages Toolkit (DLTK).[35]

Eclipse ADT (Android Development Tools)

Android Development Tools (ADT) is a Google-provided plugin for the Eclipse IDE that is
designed to provide an integrated environment in which to build Android applications. ADT
extends the capabilities of Eclipse to let developers set up new Android projects, create an
application UI, add packages based on the Android Framework API, debug their applications
using the Android SDK tools, and export signed (or unsigned) .apk files in order to distribute
their applications. It is free download. It was the official IDE for Android but was replaced by
Android Studio (based on IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition). We are also providing project
based training which will be purely handled by our software company. In this training
students will choose a project and will get training on that complete project along with the
technology on which the project is developed.Scholarship based training is also offered by us
and for that student has to appear for an aptitude test.

Big Boxx Academy offers Courses in following Training Format:

Introduction
Project Background
Today a person needs some inspirational thoughts to move on in life and
complete its task. So this app will provide the user new thoughts on
everyday basis with the time and date.

Overview
The application is uses on the Androids built-in Clock and Date picker.

Motivation
This project was suggested by my Instructor, Mr. Mickey Dhiman. For me
this is a challenging project as I had no prior experience of Android
development. I chose the Android platform because it is one of the fastest
growing mobile operating systems on the market and is an open source
development. This project allowed me to gain an understanding of how some
of the built in frameworks can be utilized to develop application.

Objectives
The objectives of this project were to create an Application

My personal objective was to gain valuable experience in Android

Development

Development Requirements
This project was developed on Eclipse using the Android Developer Toolkit. It
was developed in Android API Level 7 (for users of Android 2.1 and later).
This makes it available to 76% of Android users4. I decided to use Eclipse
because it is the Google approved development environment for Android
Development5 and as such has the greatest level of online support. Android
Applications are developed using the Java Framework6.
Testing completed on the Android Emulator.

Issues for consideration

Battery drainage is one of the key issues. The use of Internet can drain some
of the battery.

Development

In the Requirements Analysis and Design chapter I will review the

requirements and show the evolution into a working class diagram.
The Development chapter will cover the various aspects of the development
process and the challenges I came across while working on the product. I
will also discuss how I tested the software. I will conclude with a review of
my work complete and a discussion of future work to be undertaken.

Preparation
Android Development
Prior to beginning this progress I had no experience of Android
Development. The first step was to figure out how Android Projects are
structured.

History

13

Android is a mobile phone operating system. It was originally developed by

Android Inc, which was acquired by Google in July 2005.7 Today,
development is overseen by the Android Open Source Project (AOSP), led by
Google. The AOSP is tasked with the maintenance and further development
of Android.
As of the 3rd Quarter of 2010 Android has a market share of 25% making it
the second most popular phone operating system of the market (second only
to Nokias Symbian). This is a major rise from the 3.5% share Android had
in 3Q2009.

Architecture
Android is based on the Linux Kernel. Android Developers are able to access
all the components of the Application Framework used by core applications
when creating an application. These features include the Location Manager,
Bluetooth, the Accelerometer, and Email etc.

Application Framework
An Android Application has four parts- Activities, Services, Broadcast
Receivers and Content Providers. Activities are the visual interfaces for each
task in the application. Activities in my Application might include the front
view of the app.Services are the background tasks that dont have a user
interface. Services might be linked to one or more activities.
The Broadcast Receiver receives and reacts to broadcast announcements (for
example, a low battery message). The Content Provider shares the
applications data with other applications. This data can be stored in a
SQLite database.

Websites
In addition to phone applications, there are several websites that allow users
to give some motivational thoughts.

Development Requirements
14

I downloaded the following software on to both my laptop and my assigned

PC in the Computer Science & Information Systems (CSIS) building:

Eclipse

Android Software Development Kit (SDK)

Eclipse Android Developer Toolkit (ADT)

Various versions of Eclipse came along in different years .Some of them are
listed below:

Callisto

15

Callisto is about improving the productivity of the developers working on top of

Eclipse frameworks by providing a more transparent and predictable
development cycle. By releasing 10 projects at the same time in 2006, the goal
is to eliminate uncertainty about version compatibility and make it easier to
incorporate multiple projects into your environment.

Europa
Eclipse Europa is the annual release of Eclipse projects in 2007. Like last
yearsCallisto release, the Europa release is a coordinated release of different
Eclipse project teams. This year, the annual release includes 21 projects. By
releasing these projects at the same time, the goal is to eliminate uncertainty
about version compatibility and make it easier to incorporate multiple projects
into your environment.

Ganymede
Eclipse Ganymede is the annual release of Eclipse projects in 2008; this year
including 23 projects. Some highlights of the release include the new p2
provisioning platform, new Equinox security features, new E-core modelling tools,
support for SOA and much more. Use the links below to download and discover
more about the projects in the Ganymede release.

Galileo
Eclipse Galileo is the annual release of Eclipse projects in 2009; this year it includes 33
projects.
Helios
Eclipse Helios is the annual release of Eclipse projects in 2010; this year 39 project teams are
part of the release.
Indigo
Eclipse Indigo is the annual release of Eclipse projects in June 22 2011; this year 62 project
teams are part of the release.

New integration with Gradle making it easy to manage Gradle builds from Eclipse,
via the Buildship project.

Improved Maven support, including support for Maven 3.3.3, improved Maven
archetypes integration and enhanced auto-completion in the pom editor.

Automated error reporting that allows Eclipse users to report errors directly to Eclipse
projects.

The new Thym project provides tools for building cross-platform mobile applications
using Apache Cordova.

17

Requirement Analysis

18

Identifying User Requirements

At the beginning of the project, I contacted with some sites for the thoughts
users want. I hope to follow up with this in the future.

Use Case Diagram

Development
For the development phase I divided the work up into 3 parts:

Thoughts

User Interface/Splash

Event log/database

Each part was treated as a separate unit and later merged to form the
overall application.

Thoughts
The major element of this project is the Thoughts. The Thoughts are the
main part which is delivered to the user.

19

User Interface/Splash
A critical aspect of this project was examining how the app would look and
its usability. The layout of android applications is defined in a XML file (in
this case main.xml, main2.xml and splash.xml). When the App is launched,
it displays a Splash Screen- an activity that contains a logo- for a number of
sections before proceeding to mainmenu.java. The layout for the splash is
defined in splash.xml.I had begun testing a tabbed design and a Google
maps overlay for location. When complete this should offer a high level of
usability.

Event log/database
Once the Sensor Event is created, it needs to be stored somewhere. The
Android API supports development of a SQLite database. SQLite is a
software library that implements a self-contained, server less, zeroconfiguration, transactional SQL database engine18. Data is stored in the
database.
The initial design included a list view that read the entries in the database
and displayed them using the ListView format. Users could remove events
from the list which would delete them from the table. On clicking the submit
button the application would transmit the SQL data to an external server
using the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). The database would then be
cleared.

Testing
During development I tested the application on an Android device while
driving. The aim was to observe the sensors in action and while these tests
were not scientific in nature, they allowed me to get a better understand of
how the sensors react to movement while travelling in a car. Further testing
will be required prior to the Application being launched.

Overall Development

20

I originally developed several individual apps and concentrated on getting

each individual part working before combining them. The different subapplications were:

Splash the screen that loads when the app is launched.

Thoughts thoughts which will be provided to the user.

Database.

During development I was regularly faced run time errors, which caused the
app to require a force close. I found this particularly frustrating as there
was no indication which part of the code was causing the problem. For each
of these problems I carefully reviewed the code for problems and tried
alternative methods to reduce errors. As soon as I had the individual
applications working I began the process of merging the apps together. I
started by merging the Splash (splashscreen.java) and Accelerometer app (in
mainmenu.java). I was successful in this attempt.
I set up the mainmenu activity to launch location.java (which displays the
latitude and longitude in digital decimal format) using an intent.
This worked until I tried to return to mainmenu after a certain length of
time. I have made several attempts to fix this bug prior to submission but
have yet to find a solution.

Conclusion
I found this project to be far more difficult than I ever anticipated. Without
doubt, this has been the most challenging and at the same time rewarding
programming project I have undertaken since I started college.
Unfortunately while I failed to complete all the projects requirements in
time for submission, I have developed the groundwork for an application
with great potential. The reasons for the failure to complete were mainly due
to the complexity of the project and my personal time management.
