I want to develop a web application in java. I am using eclipse juno release 2. I need a toolkit like the one in visual studio, where we drag & drop the controls for developing user interface. I found RAP plugin for the same. Can anybody tell me whether it will serve the purpose?Please suggest.
RAP provides a widget toolkit with SWT API, hence you can use the SWT Designer, which is part of the Eclipse WindowBuilder project.
This tutorial will help you get started with the SWT Designer. The UIs created with this tool can also be used with RAP, as long as you avoid controls that are not supported by RAP (such as StyledText).

In Visual Studio for .net projects I can use built in tools to generate API clients by swagger. It simply and works great.
This option is missing from Windows Runtime projects as well, like Windows 10 IOT ones.
What is the best way to create API clients by swagger for this? If there is no built in tool / extension for VS, any external tools are highly appriciated.
Thanks a lot!
I don't get your question completely; on Windows IOT Core you can run UWP (background) apps; they are compatible with .net framework and .net standard up to version 1.4. This should work with a generated client from swagger.
Also you can use Refit to create a REST client according to best practices based upon an interface with attribute decorations.
I am evaluating UFT (formerly QTP) as an automation tool for testing a Microsoft Management Console app. The controls have the prefix MMC, e.g. MMCMainWindow.
I have contacted HP and so far they have not come up with a solution. The solutions architect I am working with suggested using the extensibility toolkit, but I'm not sure that was meant for creating custom controls for an entire application.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have created an XE2 FireMonkey application which needs to run on an iPad. I am familiar with exporting to XCode and recompiling on the Mac machine. This all works quite fine.
The problem however is when I want to connect to an existing web service. Using the WSDL Import, I can create the necessary file and the functionality from my web service works as expected. This only works in a Windows environment though as the file created by the WSDL Import uses the "InvokeRegistry" which is Windows specific.
How can I connect to a web service in FireMonkey in a way which will compile on XCode and work in an iOS environment?
The Web Service Toolkit of Free Pascal is one option. According to this forum post, iOS can be used as target platform.
The toolkit includes a WSDL importer wizard, also available as command line tool ("ws_helper").
"Web Service Toolkit” is a web services package for FPC, Lazarus and
Delphi; “Web Service Toolkit” is meant to ease web services
consumption and creation by FPC, Lazarus and Delphi users.
It seems that one cannot have data connectivity in mobile iOS applications without various forms of "hacking" code. There is currently no standard way with the XE2 framework to support this.
See: http://edn.embarcadero.com/article/41729
XE5 has major improvements and data connectivity is now easily handled via DataSnap. One can easily reference existing web services via a DataSnap server, so the issues I originally had are now solved.
I am looking to find out the testing tool capabilities that are offered with Visual Studio. From my research, I understand that you offer both functional and load testing tools for both web and Windows-based applications. I read the ‘coded UI Tests’ feature automates UI testing. My questions is, does this feature only work on .NET-based applications or can I use it to do UI testing on an application that was written in PowerBuilder?
You can find here the configurations that are supported by coded UI.
PowerBuilder is not in the list but depending on the technology it relies on (MFC?) it might work.
You can download a trial version of VS and try it on a PB application.
I'm planning on developing an Windows desktop-based GUI application, and I don't have a clue which language or IDE to choose. I'd REALLY like something with a WYSIWYG GUI editor. My application will rely on web-based XML feeds, so built in support for that would be great. I don't want the application to have any dependencies or require admin rights to run. Cross-platform is nice, not not required.
I'm willing to learn a new language if that's necessary.
Delphi is well reputed for Windows GUI application developpment. It's even a 'RAD' Studio (rapid application development studio) as they call it.
Check out Delphi. Alternatively FreePascal with its Lazarus IDE is pretty much an open-source Delphi clone, which while not as polished, offers cross-platform support.
For Windows, I will definitely go for C#.
If you know c++ and have MFC experiences, it should be fairly easy to learn.
Yes, it has WYSIWYG GUI editor.

Good Luck!
There are several variants.
Windows only
C# + MSVS:
One of the best choices on Windows platform today
+good documentation
+big developers community
-you need a system which has .net installed.
Delphi
+easy to start
all-in-one tool with GUI editor
not very widespread
Cross-platfrom
Qt or wxWidgets or some other toolsets
If you're looking for a free solution, you can use SharpDevelop, which is a free IDE for C# or VB.NET, and has a GUI designer similar to the one in Visual Studio. You should be able to use any classes and libraries from/for the .NET Framework.
You'll need the .NET Framework, but starting with Windows Vista it's installed by default (.NET Framework 3.0, I think).
