Widget in com.google.gwt.cell.client

[Jim]

Can the widgets in com.google.gwt.cell.client be directly used in
uibinder?

Just like any widget, yes. They don't have any "integration" though (no @UiConstructor) though, and no specific parsers either, so you'd have to initialize most things from Java, including for some of them the instantiation (either through a @UiFactory method, or via @UiField(provided=true))

It doesn't work. I think cell widgets in com.google.gwt.cell.client
are designed to work with their parent container such as CellTable.
The render method in the cell widgets are called by their parent
container during rendering process.

I want to implement the following features on one page:

First Name : TextInputCell
Last Name: TextInputCell
Date Of Birth: DatePickerCell
....

I would appreciate your solution.

Oh, sorry, misread your question! There are no Widgets in c.g.g.cell.client, only (mostly) Cells. You can use Cells as widget using the CellWidget from c.g.g.user.cellview.client: http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/latest/com/google/gwt/user/cellview/client/CellWidget.html

You'll have to instantiate themin your Java code though until specific subclasses are added (such as TextButton in http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/source/browse/trunk/user/src/com/google/gwt/widget/client/ , not on GWT 2.3)
