Description

OS.bee acts like an Eclipse 4 application, therefore the foundation is the E4 application model.

Figure 1: E4 application model.

OS.bee is not a RCP application but renders on browsers as a web application using the Vaadin framework. To achieve this, a bridging framework works between the E4 application model and Vaadin. The framework is called Vaaclipse.

The presented "Foodmart" example is based on Pentaho's Mondrian scheme and data. The data of the chart is generated by a cube created with the Cube DSL Model
