I am using the SliderBar in the incubation project and have a few
questions. My general question is how do I use the Slider bar with
the incubator project for GWT 1.7?

I did the following.

1) Followed the instructions for using the incubator here.
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit-incubator/wiki/HowToUseTheIncubator
In particular I downloaded the jar from this link. One thing I
noticed this didn't have a version on it, so I am not sure or not it
is for 1.7?

2) I saw that there was a download for 1.7 incubator here. What is
the difference between this and the above jar? Eclipse needed this
jar and gwt needed the previous one, however they don't seem to be
compatible.

3) I had read that the newer slider is
import com.google.gwt.gen2.picker.client.SliderBar;
and not
import com.google.gwt.widgetideas.client.SliderBar


However,

I found that the link in step one is stale and that the link to use is
the one in step 2. The documentation for the Slider is nonexistant
and for that matter the documentation incubator is pretty weak. For
example it still isn't clear to me when I should use the gen2
package. I know it is open source but for the only link i could find
to use on how to use the incubator to be wrong is not good.

This link has a number of comments that say that the posting on how to
use the incubator is wrong and no-one has corrected it. Being as it
is a wiki can I update it? If so, I will.
