Jsni replacement in 2.8?

[Ali Akhtar]

In GWT 2.8, what should be used in place of Jsni methods? Such as for integrating a 3rd party js library? There was very sparse documentation available for JsInterop last time I checked, are there any more docs available now?

Take a look at the official JsInterop 1.0 specs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10fmlEYIHcyead_4R1S5wKGs1t2I7Fnp_PaNaa7XTEk0/view

How much of that has been implemented? Are there any examples of it working anywhere?

Everything in the 1.0 spec should work in 2.8 SNAPSHOT.

Is Jsni going to be deprecated / removed?

JSNI won't be removed in 2.8.

To be future-proof, you'll want to limit your use of JSNI to the bare minimum, and use JsInterop whenever possible, but there are still a few things that JsInterop cannot do and that require the use of JSNI (or are more efficient with JSNI, e.g. object literals vs. building an object one property at a time).
