Elemental2:1.0.0-beta-2 released

[Julien Dramaix]

The beta version of Elemental2 using the JsInterop specification has been released on Sonatype today and is available on Maven central. This release should be the last beta release and I expect to release the first RC in few weeks.

This release introduces -- among others:

- a better granularity for api with numbers. Config files list APIs using integer instead of double.

- usage of wildcard type for more flexibility.

- support for javascript constructor function

- static factory methods for dictionary type.

Elemental2 is split into small jar files:

Jar file	artifact-id	GWT module
elemental2-core.jar	elemental2-core	elemental2.core.Core
elemental2-promise.jar	elemental2-promise	elemental2.promise.Promise
elemental2-dom.jar	elemental2-dom	elemental2.dom.Dom
elemental2-svg.jar	elemental2-svg	elemental2.svg.Svg
elemental2-webgl.jar	elemental2-webgl	elemental2.webgl.WebGl
elemental2-media.jar	elemental2-media	elemental2.media.Media
elemental2-indexeddb.jar	elemental2-indexeddb	elemental2.indexeddb.IndexedDb
elemental2-webstorage.jar	elemental2-webstorage	elemental2.webstorage.WebStorage

You can try them by downloading the jar files or adding Maven dependencies:

<dependency>

 <groupId>com.google.elemental2</groupId>

 <artifactId>${artifact-id}</artifactId>

 <version>1.0.0-beta-2</version>

</dependency>

Then inherit the right gwt module in your gwt.xml file.

This beta version works only with the latest HEAD_SNAPSHOT release of GWT.

Don’t hesitate to report any bugs, issues, concerns you have on the github bug tracker.

Important note: This is a beta releases and future updates (up until the final release) may break code!

It looks like the poms weren't correctly updated - they still depend on jsinterop-base 1.0.0-beta-1, tickling https://github.com/google/elemental2/issues/20 again. The gwt2 compiler fails on this with this sort of error:

[INFO]    [ERROR] Errors in 'jar:file:/Users/colin/.m2/repository/com/google/elemental2/elemental2-dom/1.0.0-beta-2/elemental2-dom-1.0.0-beta-2.jar!/elemental2/dom/Element.java'

[INFO]       [ERROR] Line 374: The method asString(Element.SetAttributeValueUnionType) is undefined for the type Js

Simple workaround, manually add excludes on jsinterop-base, and inherit the correct version in your project:

    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.google.elemental2</groupId>
      <artifactId>elemental2-dom</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0-beta-2</version>
      <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
          <groupId>com.google.jsinterop</groupId>
          <artifactId>base</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
      </exclusions>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.google.jsinterop</groupId>
      <artifactId>base</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0-beta-3</version>
    </dependency>

Julien, if you do happen to release an updated beta to solve this, perhaps also update jsinterop-annotations to 1.0.2, the version that was released with GWT 2.8.2.

[Julien Dramaix]

Thanks for this feedback Colin. I'll update the pom accordingly and do a beta-3 release on Tuesday.

So it's going to be compatible with GWT 2.8.2 ?

Well, it is already.

[Hristo Stoyanov]

Hm ... Julien states it only works with the latest get head snapshot, maybe not 2.8.2? Also, seems like beta-3 with Colin's findings was never pushed out to maven?

IIRC, Elemental2 beta should only work with GWT head snapshot.

There must be some cases where it requires the current head, but so far I haven't had any issue with 2.8.2.

[Julien Dramaix]

I've released a Elemental2:1.0.0-beta-3 yesterday in order to fix the maven issue.

As usual, elemental2 is split into small jar files:

<version>1.0.0-beta-3</version>

</dependency>

 

Then inherit the right gwt module in your gwt.xml file.

 

This beta version works only with the latest HEAD_SNAPSHOT release of GWT.

 

Don’t hesitate to report any bugs, issues, concerns you have on the github bug tracker.

 

Important note: This is a beta releases and future updates (up until the final release) may break code!

So I think Thomas is right. 

One of our change in this new release was to rename toString() method on some objects to avoid confusion with java.lang.Object methods.
That broke Elemental with J2CL because java.lang.Object is a JsType in J2CL and we need to lift up some jsinterop restriction to allows user to override an implementation with a native override (something similar to https://gwt-review.googlesource.com/c/gwt/+/20122)

But in GWT, Object is not a JsType and we don't have that problem. So we dont need https://gwt-review.googlesource.com/c/gwt/+/20122 for Elemental in GWT.

The good news is Elemental2:1.0.0-beta-3 is working with the current version of GWT. Sorry for the confusion.

Correction of my previous email: Elemental2:1.0.0-beta-3 is working with the current version of GWT. You don't need to use the HEAD_SNAPSHOT release of GWT.

Sorry for the confusion.

-Julien

[Slava Pankov]

Why and what for "latest HEAD_SNAPSHOT release of GWT" is requered?

I don't see any "serious" changes on GWT github comparing with 2.8.2
