Hi all,

I think we have all patches in place for putting out an RC2.
If you feel strongly that something should make RC2 please raise this on this thread. I will be cutting RC2 tomorrow PST time.

I thought I have read somewhere that you added support for default methods in request factory proxy interfaces. Am I wrong with this or is there just something broken?

I just tried to add a default method to one of my proxies using gwt 2.8.0-rc1 and it tells me that only getter and setter are allowed and that there is no domain method similar to *signature*.

Thanks,
Kay

Kay, can you offer a reproducible example of this, and confirm that you have no older copy of GWT (like gwt-user/gwt-dev from 2.8.0-beta1) on your classpath? To test this, I just built some quick autobeans in a simple project (so that I didn't need a full server to back it):

public DefaultMethodInGeneratorTest implements EntryPoint {
    @Override
    public void onModuleLoad() {
        ABF abf = GWT.create(ABF.class);
        abf.bean().as().buildName();
    }

    public interface ABF extends AutoBeanFactory {
        AutoBean<SampleBean> bean();
    }


    public interface SampleBean {
        String getFirstName();
        String getLastName();
        default String buildName() {
            return getLastName() + ", " + getFirstName();
        }
    }
}

This compiles correctly (for me, with 2.8.0-RC1), even though in prior GWT versions you would need to list buildName() as a @Category.

I just tested your example. THIS compiles and works but when trying to add a default (or static) i get the said errors. maybe the requestfactory apt processor is not correctly updated to the new features?

I have checked that I have all gwt-* dependencies (including requestfactory-apt and requestfactory-server) with version 2.8-rc1.

fixed missing words:

e.g. this inteface:
@ProxyFor(value = Test.class)
public interface TextProxy extends ValueProxy {

default String getTest() {
return "";
}

static String getTest2() {
return "";
}

}


generates the following errors:
Could not find domain method similar to java.lang.String getTest()
Could not find domain method similar to java.lang.String getTest2()

when removing the "get" ( having "test()" and "test2()") it has those errros:
Could not find domain method similar to java.lang.String test()
Could not find domain method similar to java.lang.String test2()
Only getters and setters allowed
Only getters and setters allowed

I would be nice to have performance of String(char[],int,int) fixed as suggested.

This issue is still present with RC2. :(

I'll try to build a small repro project.

I believe the ValidationTool would need to be updated, but you can probably get it to work by adding the appropriate annotation (can't remember the exact name)

Hello Thomas,

thank you for the hint. I just found the  @SkipInterfaceValidation annotation in com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory.shared. 

This compiles and works but if possible it would still be nice to have the ValidationTool / APT-Processor updated for 2.8.0.

Thank you! :)
