Non-binding +1 from me too... Eager to have XWatch benefit from the results
of this work :-)

Hi everybody,
Jerome suggested yesterday that we could handle the upgrade as follows:
- use MyGWT widgets library for the web-gwt functionalities (modal dialog
boxes) since it is a pure java library and its usage only involves changes
in the web-gwt code
- if needed, gwt-ext could be used for particular projects using web-gwt
api and each project's code could be changed accordingly (this would be
the case for watch).
Both libraries seem pretty reliable, with active developers and nice
community, so, from this point of view, they are both superior to gwttk
that we currently use.
Here's my +1 for this approach.
WDYT?
Hi all,
we want to upgrade XWiki Web gwt to gwt 1.4 for the 1.3 version so,
since
gwttk does not have a version for gwt 1.4 and we
depend on it for
creating
modal dialogs, we need to replace tk with
something else. A good option
is
gwt-ext, which also can replace gwt-widgets and
provides some more nice
ui
objects and client functionality (like date
parsing -- which we get from
gwt-widgets for the moment).
The trouble with gwt-ext is that it requires ext javascript library to
run, which means that any gwt application needs to import, besides the
gwt.js file, some ext javascript files. Since the modal dialogs are
defined in the web-gwt module (so our gwt-ext dependency is there) and
we
cannot import the ext javascript files at that
level, the only solution
is
to rely on the application using web-gwt to
include right all required
files. It doesn't seem to me as good practice but I cannot figure out
how
big of an issue it is (since that application
already has some rules to
obey, js files to include, etc to have gwt working).
WDYT?
