Help with generics or inheritance with RequestFactory

[Andigator]

Will RequestFactory support the use of generics and/or inheritance on
ValueProxy?

For example, say I have FruitValueProxy. AppleProxy, OrangeProxy and
GrapeProxy extend it. My EntityProxy must have setters for all three
fruits individually instead of just writing setFruit(FruitValueProxy
proxy). Is there a workaround or plans for improvement?

It looks like the feature request was accepted:

http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=5367

This is an workaround, but it's how I'm planning to deal with the
polymorphism until it's fully supported by the request factory.

---------------------------------------------
interface FruitWrapper extends ValueProxy {
// returns null if the fruit is not an apple
AppleProxy getApple();
// returns null if the fruit is not a grape
GrapeProxy getGrape();
// etc...
// ...
}

interface MyEntityProxy extends EntityProxy {
void setFruit(FruitWrapper fruit);
FruitWrapper getFruit();

// More important is querying various fruits
List<FruitWrapper> queryFruits(some parameters);
}
---------------------------------------------

If there is a better option please share, I'd be very interested...

I meant to say "This is an ugly workaround..."

Thanks for your help! I like this better than my current workaround
(having a setter for each proxy).
