(shameless plug) not a tutorial per se, but for the overall concepts of places and activities (which I reiterate have not much to do with MVP), see:

I looked at GWTP and Mvp4g documentations though, and I didn't like the way they approach the problem (well, and they are "heavy" frameworks, and I hate frameworks; places do one thing, and they do it well, PlaceHistoryHandler then plugs them to the browser's history, and it does it well; activities are a lightweight, micro-framework built on top of places, and they do their job well; you can use places without activities, you can also easily "escape" and switch to something else, and/or mix activities with another pattern/toolkit; there are limitations in what activities do and allow out-of-the-box, but it's easy to add/modify/replace behavior if you want it, possibly localized to a single point in your app, and keep the out-of-the-box behavior else where; because it's more a toolkit than a framework) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
