Running EMFStore with multiple Clients and a Server

August 1, 2013 | 1 min Read

Recently we released EMFStore 1.0.0 and made it available for download and installation.

Using the tutorial “Getting Started with EMFStore”, you can set up a first client based on the EMF Client Platform e3 application. We use the EMF Client Platform as a demo application in this context, so you do not need to implement a client by yourself to begin with.

To set up a server, you follow the same steps but select a different application shown on the screenshot.

Finally we can launch the three configurations. The server will launch headless and produce output to the console view in the Eclipse IDE.

 The two clients each open a new workbench.

At this point, you can run all the example steps as described in the tutorial “Getting Started with EMFStore” (Editors Note: This tutorial has since been removed. Contact us if you have any questions.) but, this time, with a server that is not embedded in the client and with two different clients.

A detailed tutorial how to get this setup running is available here (Editors Note: This tutorial has since been removed. Contact us if you have any questions.). Enjoy!
