@SingleJsoImpl in GWT 2.0??

[MonkeyMike]

Dear GWT 2.0 developers,

I noticed the latest announcement about GWT 2.0, Milestone 2,
here...

http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit/browse_thread/thread/15f20608f0a73b73

...and I noticed that it does not make any mention of the
@SingleJsoImpl feature, which is described here...

http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/wiki/OverlayTypes

Can we still expect this feature in GWT 2.0?


To provide a little more detail: I have been creating a GWT
Overlay Type library for Dojo's GFX library, and I have encountered
the difficulty of creating access to an overlay type without an
intermediate type. My solution, for now, is to create public access
to all of the overlay types and have a "delegate" library of types
that use the overlay types. The pur;pose of the "delegate" types are
to offer a more acceptable Java API, since they are not subclasses of
JavaScriptObject and therefore do not have the JavaScriptObject
restrictions. So, for example, where an overlay type can only provide
a "final" method, the corresponding "delegate" type can provide a non-
final method, which calls the overlay type's final method. However,
these "delegate" types are problematic because they involve a lot of
extra object creation that does not occur when using the overlay types
directly. So it seems like I can resolve some of this with the use of
@SingleJsoImpl, and I am wondering whether or not I can surely expect
this in GWT 2.0.

The functionality that you are looking for is in 2.0. The compiler simply figures it out, so there's no need for an explicit annotation.

That's great! Thanks for the quick reply. :)
