Hi Benjamin, Thanks for you interest in GWT Validation. I am excited to work on it, but it is my 20% project not my normal project, so the progress on this will be slow at times.
The first thing to remember is that this is PRE ALPHA code. While it will do constraint checking on the client side right now, There are so many constraints that make it basically unusable.

I am doing my best to implement JSR-303 bean validation. Which is based on beans, but it does have a way of expressing constraints in XML. I am a long way from being able to support that in GWT. so for now wrapping you JCR may be the best choice. > > 2.)

With the current state I would wait. Unless you want to help be get checkout GWT from svn HEAD and help me make it work. http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/makinggwtbetter.html R, Nick > > Regards, > Benjamin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
