A Short GWT JsInterop Article for Beginners

[Dr. Lofi Dewanto]

Hi All,

I wrote a short article to introduce GWT and JsInterop for beginners, hope to see more people using GWT: http://bit.ly/WebJavaStory

Enjoy, thanks,

Nice!

Thanks for sharing this!I would love to see also pointer or a reference available somewhere about the workings of Super Dev Mode in conjunction with the GWT compiler. Just a high level schematic or flowchart showing the flow and connections between these tools. What the codeserver does? So far if I follow the documented steps and nothing goes wrong during the compile and build all is good. But things start to get complicated when something goes wrong with the build tools.

7 years old next week, but still accurate afaik: http://blog.ltgt.net/how-does-gwts-super-dev-mode-work/

"Modern" SDM doesn't need anything specific in the gwt.xml files, and (major difference) no longer requires bookmarklets if you run CodeServer with -launcherDir (or use the DevMode launcher instead); it then generates a nocache.js file that does the same thing as the bookmarklet+compile button automatically on page load; but the overall architecture hasn't changed.
