Is there anything similar to using java threads that I can use in my client side code ?
In my application a user types a search term into a Text box. For every character typed in my code goes and searches in a dataset for results containing the search string. These results are then returned and displayed in a List. But the problem is that because my search + display code is so slow, it makes the typing in very sluggish for the user (i.e. they can’t type the next character in until the search + display code has returned). Ideally I’d like to run the search+display code in a separate thread – so that the user can continue to type in the Text box. But I understand that threads are not supported in GWT client-side coding ? Or is it possible to have the search + display in an only client-side asynchronous call ? Any help, much appreciated, M. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
