Hi Jérôme,
You might also consider MyGWT:
http://mygwt.net/
I checked it out, it has a lot of nice features, but, unfortunately, no
'date picker' widget (which is one of the reasons we started all this
gwt-ext + gwt1.4 thing).
So yes, we could use it, but it will not fully replace gwt-ext and fulfill
our needs.
if you're worried about the ext.js lib. It's a native implementation.
For Curriki, there may be some issues with gwt-html-editor which in
its 1.4 branch just brings up Fck Editor. I had some issues using
gwt-html-editor trunk in 1.4.61.
So we definitely need an opinion from Curriki on this...
Luis.

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).
IMO,
Pros for migrating to ext, vs. sticking to gwttk:
- larger community, visibility on roadmap
- lots of widgets/functionnalities available (datepickers, form
validation, etc.)
- gwt 1.4 already compatible
Cons:
- every app has to import ext JS scripts in addition to gwt.js
- increases total JS size
It would be great to have opinions from the Curriki development team on
the topic.
Regards,
Jerome.
WDYT?
