It's funny to me that you feel this way, because every large project I've worked on using a dynamically typed language has turned into a rats nest and has caused me undue headaches with me having to maintain the runtime context in my head instead of having that determined for me. I'm talking about once you get into the 30K plus lines of code.
I do think that if you're just adding a menu or some other JS glitz to a page, GWT is definitely more than you need, which is why I still hack out PERL scripts whenever I want to churn through a file for some quick one off analysis. I know there are large projects written completely in dynamic languages though, have you written one, and are there things you do to keep them maintainable? I know you can create a rats nest with JAVA too, but at least I always know simple things like what variables I have access to and if my refactorings changed every instance calling my function. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
