Hi Vassilis, I have been using JsInterop for managing IndexedDB stores and I have created this [1] helper class for casting back and forth js to java. The main issue is that in GWT there are two Object hiearchies one from java and js, GWT makes are really job hiding that detail, but with JsInterop the difference leaks ;-)
[1] https://github.com/bauna/gwt-indexeddb/blob/devel/gwt-indexeddb-core/src/main/java/org/nuvola/indexeddb/client/JsInteropHelper.java Let me know if want examples where I'm using this helper class.
