Vaadin is very suitable for many scenarios, if not most scenarios. The problem is ...
For every web project I have ever built, there are about a few of the pages of any project where I needed to do something different from the normal presentation framework. Whatever the framework is. When I needed to divert out of the vaadin framework I face obstacles due to: 1. I need to reconstruct the vaadin look and feel to give a unified look to my app. 2. My pages outside of the vaadin framework is unable to access variables defined inside the framework unless I place them in memory cache or session attributes. It may be just one or two pages in every web app project, but those one or two pages that I have to create outside the vaadin framework are very crucial features required by the user. Since vaadin does not have an API to let non-vaadin components communicate with the framework, those two pages with crucial features effectively preclude me from using vaadin. For the same reason, then, vaadin does not play nice with non-vaadin components by not providing an avenue to communicate/acquire state changes to non-vaadin components. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
