Thank you, Rogelio, for your input.
I like the idea of generating the data model from the OpenAPI
specification, because I will not have to write some boring
error-prone code. I also like the optimization of the GWT compiler.
The swagger-codegen can output Jaxrs Cxf Client, which has the API
interface defined with JAX-RS annotations. So it seems that even the
interfaces could be auto-generated. You only have to modify them so
that they extend RestService, required by RestyGWT.
Have you tried auto-generating the API interfaces with Jaxrs Cxf Client?
In your previous message you wrote that you auto-generate a GWT
module. What do you specifically mean by a module here? Do you use
some publicly-available tools, or do you have something home-grown?

Yes, those are the Models I was referring to.
I can't compare my approach to JsInterop +
RequestBuilder/XMLHttpRequest because I haven't tried it, but having
used RequestBuilder (and direct XMLHttpRequest) before, I can't see
how you will write less code using that approach. A benefit of doing
things in Java is that GWT will optimize the resulting javascript
(Java classes/methods from the generated api that don't get used
aren't included).

Thanks, Rogelio!
When you auto-generate Java source code, do you use
swagger-codegen to
generate Java client code, so that you get Java classes implementing
the types from the OpenAPI #/definitions?
