Applicability:
Product: Software AG Designer
Software AG requests customers in helping us test-drive a light-weight version of Software AG Designer with only Service Development in it.
This is a POC to evaluate the Service Development Rich Client Platform (RCP).
This Service Development POC is an Eclipse rich client platform application that is intended solely for editing, testing and debugging Integration Server services. In other words, it is a subset of Designer that only supports Service Development.
This document provides instructions on the installation of the Service Development RCP and on how to provide feedback to Software AG on its usage and performance.
NOTE: The Service Development RCP is not officially supported and you cannot use normal support channels regarding this configuration. This does not constitute a commitment by Software AG to support Service Development RCP at any point in the future.
