The current RPC wire format is asymetric, meaning that the same object going to the server will look different than coming from the server. There also isn't really a published spec for the RPC wire format as it tends to change from version to version of GWT.
In GWT, this is not an issue because the GWT compiler generates the code required to convert to and from the wire format, so the wire format could be wildly different from one version to another with no change in your source code. Does this mean that you can't create a non-gwt client? no ... but it certainly does make your job a little more difficult. -jason On Oct 29, 2008, at 8:37 AM, Brian wrote: > Is the gwt-rpc format described, so I could write a non-gwt app (say, > a mac desktop gadget) that hits my server using the same api as the > gwt-rpc browser app? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
