Hi,

We are starting a new initiative of developing a huge web app... We
have pretty much locked down the backed technologies, but still
struggling with the front end. Have looked around and found tons of
javascript frameworks and libs and tools to build them, but GWT really
caught our attention.

Can anyone pls point out to one good example using GWT2.4 with
activities, places and MVP. I am looking at an enterprise level (huge
app) example..........

Thank you..

Hi Shwetha D,

we use GWT with MVP in a really big enterprise project. I can tell you that GWT is the only solution if you try to handle big javascript applications without hours of searching for spelling misstakes or things like this.

Maybe you already found samples like Bit or Hive Development's example or the tips from Google itself on GWT MVP.

As you can imagine it's very difficult to point out more (and bigger) mvp examples because of most of them are not open source of any kind.

If you specify more exactly what you need - maybe I can tell you little more.

Greetz,
mukarev

If you want strict MVP, I'd suggest using GWTP, http://code.google.com/p/gwt-platform/. We exclusively use this at Arcbees.com. You can build presenters and child presenters. But with MVP there is some additional overhead that takes place to conform. I don't always dig the additional over head so I don't follow it strictly myself.

For me MVP is not always the solution needed for the challenge, but thats my take on it. I've been building my current projects with MVP using request factory activities and places just fine but like I said thats my take :). For me the UiBinder is enough and with deferred binding you can do some nice separation between the views.
