I'm trying to follow this tutorial: http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/tools/gwtdesigner/tutorials/loginmanager.html I'm a real Java newbie, and perhaps some of the following confusion is due to that.
1. 1. Set the path to the GWT installation directory. -> It doesn't tell my which level of the directory tree I should point at. Perhaps I guessed right. 2. 3. Create the Login Composite. -> What in the heck is a Composite? I couldn't find the illustrated menu pick. I made a wild guess that what I wanted was a UiBinder. What's a UiBinder? 3. Add the following widgets to the FlexTable and arrange it as follows: -> The FlexTable refuses to take any widgets. What's this all about? I finally used two HorizontalPanels to group the labels and text boxes, but it doesn't look right. 4. Add a TextBox next to the Username and change the variable property to textBoxUsername. -> There is no "variable" property. Is "name" the right property? 5. 4. Create and apply CSS styles Let's create a CSS style for the Label widgets. Click on the CSS toolbar item to open the CSS Style Editor. -> Where in the heck is the CSS toolbar icon? OK, I can ignore styles for now... 6. 5. Add Event Handlers First, let's convert the text boxes from local to field variables. Switch to Design mode, select the Username text box and click the Convert local to field button from the properties pane. Do the same with the Password text box. -> The pictured icon is grayed out, and the balloon says "Conversion is not supported". And when I try the code that follows, Eclipse claims the text boxes are undefined. At this point I gave up and started typing here...
