Support for RCP Developer™ Instantiations wants to help you build RCP applications quickly and get the most from our products. Our technical support team are experts on our products, and most are developers themselves. We understand that sometimes time is of the essence, or you just need more guidance than our manuals and examples provide. We have worked hard to put together a series of support plans to help you as promptly and as thoroughly as you need.

Requesting Technical Support
Technical support is provided via telephone, fax, newsgroup and e-mail to customers with active support. If you have active support, your support requests will be treated with the highest priority.
When purchasing annual plans or subscription, the number of support subscriptions must match the number of licenses purchased. We offer support on an all or nothing basis (e.g., if you buy 10 licenses, you must buy 10 support subscriptions or one project subscription or none at all). Support offerings and pricing are subject to change.
Customers with active support can generally expect responses within 24 hours (48 hours for some questions of a more complex or multi-part nature). Support resources are always allocated preferentially to customers with active support.
Include our support form with the product name, version and platform with any fax, e-mail or newsgroup support requests. In addition, please be sure to provide the details on your operating system and/or development environment. Your questions should be concise and restricted to a single incident or request. If you have any code which may be relevant to the problem please include it. Example code that illustrates the problem is especially welcome (and often leads to a quicker resolution) as are debug logs generated in the event of a system exception.
