Share Header, Footer, ... in different views with UIBinder

[Guillen Antonio]

Hi all,

I am still learning GWT and now I want to build views using materialdesign  (with MVP and activity/places)  sharing the same header, footer and side navigation. I don't found examples or tutorial to do this and I have no idea how to do.

Thanks for your help

If all your "views" share the same header/footer/nav, then they should be part of your "shell", with your ActivityManager only managing the "main" part of the screen.

See https://blog.ltgt.net/gwt-21-activities/ and https://blog.ltgt.net/gwt-21-activities-nesting-yagni/ (wow, 10 years old!)

Thanks a lot Thomas,

II have already read the pages you propose, but maybe I have some gaps because I really don't understand the system.  A concrete example with the code would surely help me. Is there an example of how to do this? I guess it already exists but I can't find it after several hours of searching.
Thank you very much for your help

There is a project generator, that generates a Nalu project. The generated project has a header, footer, navigation and content area.The content area will change when clicking a navigation item. It works in the same way as the way, Thomas mentioned, but is based on Nalu instead of Activities and Places. Nalu is a routing based framework to create applications. It uses the same patterns but in a different implementation. May be it helps to learn it.

ATM there is a bug inside the generator, if you select Domino-UI. Domino-UI updates a method name and I did not update the generator. (will do it during as soon as I have some free time)

You need to replace 'setLeftAddon' with 'addLeftAddOn'.

Thnaks a lot Frank,

I read and test and use your Nalu example. Very nice and interesting job. I start to implement it in my project, but I change my mind because I discover MaterialDesign and using the MaterialContainer where I can put after clear all of my views it's much more simple I think.

Thanks a lot.
