Hi all,
I am experiencing problems when using GWT / JSNI :
For tests, let's have a parent class with a JSNI method such as
public class TestParent {
public native void show()/*-{
$doc.write("PARENT JSNI");
}-*/;
}
and a child class overriding the parent JSNI method, such as
public class TestChild extends TestParent {
@Override
public void show() {
super.show();
RootPanel.get().add(new HTML("TestChild.show"));
}
}
and a basic EntryPoint :
public class Helloworld implements EntryPoint {
public void onModuleLoad() {
TestChild t = new TestChild();
t.show();
}
}
When calling the TestChild .show() method, we could assume getting the
result :
"PARENT JSNI" + "TestChild.show"
And in fact, we get the following result :
On Google Chrome 11 in development mode with GWT plugin :
"PARENT JSNI" and an error in the GWT plugin Development mode tab :
[DEBUG] [helloworld] - Rebinding
com.google.gwt.user.client.impl.WindowImpl
[DEBUG] [helloworld] - Checking rule <replace-with
class='com.google.gwt.user.client.impl.WindowImplIE'/>
[ERROR] [helloworld] - Error while executing the JavaScript
provider

[ERROR] [helloworld] - Unable to get value of property
'user.agent'
[ERROR] [helloworld] - Deferred binding failed for

failures
[ERROR] [helloworld] - Unable to load module entry point class
fr.helloworld.client.Helloworld (see associated exception for details)
[ERROR] [helloworld] - Failed to load module 'helloworld' from user
agent 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML, like
Gecko) Chrome/11.0.696.0 Safari/534.24' at localhost:2222
This error stops any further instruction in the application.
On Firefox 3.6 in development mode with GWT plugin:
"PARENT JSNI" + "TestChild.show" (fine) but the browser is redirected
to http://127.0.0.1:8888/helloworld/hosted.html?helloworld and keeps
loading forever
When building the GWT project, the result are also different :
Chrome :
correct , works fine
Firefox 3.6 :
correct text displayed but the browser is redirected to helloworld/
F0E90C8F76FAE58BAB597BFF7095D19A.cache.html (compiled version for
firefox user agent) and keeps loading forever. I encountered the
problem on a real application, and of course the compiled application
was unable to run correctly.
Should I conclude that developer should never try to override JSNI
methods ?
Should we guess that it is a GWT compiler bug ?
