Custom UIBinder container - HOWTO??

[Transplant]

What is the preferred method for creating a custom UIBinder container?

I would like to implement a container class SuperSnazzyContainer, and
then be able use it in a UIBinder template like so:

<mylib:SuperSnazzyContainer>
<g:Label text="woo-hoo"/>
<g:Button text="click-me"/>
</mylib:SuperSnazzyContainer>

What is the most straightforward way to implement such a beast??

Thanks in advance,

Its simple.

Make your SuperSnazzyContainer implements HasWidgets.

I learned from this example: http://stackoverflow.com/a/4176867/970308

1) Implement HasWidgets

2) Forward the calls onto a FlowPanel

public class MyComponent extends Composite implements HasWidgets {


    private static MyComponentUiBinder uiBinder = GWT.create(MyComponentUiBinder.class);


    interface MyComponentUiBinder extends UiBinder<Widget, MyComponent> {}


    @UiField

    FlowPanel main;


    public MyComponent() {

        initWidget(uiBinder.createAndBindUi(this));

    }


    @Override

    public void add(Widget w) {

        main.add(w);

    }


    @Override

    public void clear() {

        main.clear();

    }


    @Override

    public Iterator<Widget> iterator() {

        return main.iterator();

    } 


    @Override

    public boolean remove(Widget w) {

        return main.remove(w);

    }

}

And just have this in your XML:
<g:FlowPanel ui:field="main" />
