No trick, it's as bad as you'd hope it wasn't. On the positive side, it's already been done -- I'm just augmenting the tests for the various subsystems such as RequestBuilder and event dispatching to make sure we tighten the correctness noose as much as possible. Longer term, Bob and I both would really like to find a general mechanism for making this pattern easy to do from any path into a GWT module from "the outside", exactly along the lines of what Matt was talking about. I think rolling this functionality into gwt-exporter (and then rolling that sort of functionality directly into GWT proper) will get us pretty far down the road. Code review request forthcoming, possibly tomorrow. -- Bruce --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
