Moving off 1.4.62 depends on how fast I can re-implement/replace our legacy use of MyGWT Widgets. I have replicated about 80% of our dependency with custom components that fill the need ( tables, trees, dialogs, effects ), in the next few weeks I will get to eliminate the remaining 20%, and will "own the code" in that transition, and be bound to no external libraries or the whims of License Changes. Though the work is difficult, the payoff has been tremendous - our Table Widget is Orders Of Magnitude faster than MyGWT's, can contain Widgets in Cells, etc, do Sorting, Paging. Column visibility. GWT-Ext and Ext-GWT looked ideal at the outset of the project, but in reality have been the source of much pain - No matter how "pretty" they are. I'm working on a high-performance application in the Financial Sector - Pretty doesn't count when you are talking about 3 Seconds to display a table V.S. our 0.30 seconds. The rest of the 1.5 transition is properly parameterizing RPC objects/ signatures, which is trivial compared to the component work. Binding ourselves to MyGWT early on was the biggest mistake. But hey, I enjoy writing Widgets.... On Sep 26, 11:38 am, jay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > 1. No > 2. Yes > 3. Yes > 4. No > 5. Hopefully not -- I'm hoping 1.6 will be released with OOPHM :-) > 6.
