GWT War File Sizes
Hi everyone, I'm currently uploading our latest war files to our server for deployment. I've noticed even though the JS files are only about 400Kb, all my war files (we have multiple war files for our deployment) are around 30MB each. Closer inspection with winzip shows that the majority of this size are the jars in the lib folder - nearly all of them being GWT client jar libraries and module libraries. I don't understand why they are needed in my war files as they are only used for compliation of the client to JavaScript, not for any servlets. I haven't been able to Google any answers to why GWT does this or what would happen if I removed the jars from the deployment, so was wondering if anyone had an answer to why the war keeps including all these library jar files, if there is a simple ant script to remove them from future war files and if I will face any problems with deployment later on by doing this? If they jars are just included by default for no reason other than the build.xml file not being written properly, it would be nice for a future version of GWT properties file to include an option to remove these during war file packaging so the wars are only a few hundred Kb and take minutes to upload over my ADSL connection as opposed to the hours its taking now! Just in case, I'm using Netbeans with GWT4NB plugin (just in case its an issue with that and not GWT) Thanks, David --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Problems rendering a simple panel!!
Hi everyone,
I know this works as I've done this extremely simple task on GWT
several times (I am using GWT-Ext but I think this is a GWT issue) but
for some reason, the default GWT project produced in NetBeans works
when I run it. However, as soon as I move the button and the label
into an external class and render it in mainEntryPoint as shown below,
nothing is rendered on my screen. Below is an example of my code:
/* My Panel Class */
public class Space extends Panel {
public void Space () {
final Label label = new Label(Hello, GWT!!!);
final Button button = new Button(Click me!);
button.addClickListener(new ClickListener(){
public void onClick(Widget w) {
label.setVisible(!label.isVisible());
}
});
this.add(label);
this.add(button);
}
}
/* Main Entry Point Class */
public class spacesEntryPoint implements EntryPoint {
/** Creates a new instance of spacesEntryPoint */
public spacesEntryPoint() {
}
/**
The entry point method, called automatically by loading a
module
that declares an implementing class as an entry-point
*/
public void onModuleLoad() {
Space newSpace = new Space();
RootPanel.get().add(newSpace);
}
}
The above code renders nothing, even playing with heights/widths and
viewing the HTML in FireBug shows nothing rendered. If anyone has a
clue on how to fix this extremely annoying issue please let me know!
Thanks.

Re: Problems rendering a simple panel!!
I'm kicking myself now...that was obvious! Thanks for pointing it out Ian and for your quick reply.

RunAsynch Rest - when will they be available?
Hi everyone, For a while now I've been trying to find an elegant solution to dynamically load widgets/code into a running GWT application, and finally I've stumbled across RunAsynch(), which is in the GWT SVN repository, but has no indication on when it will finally be release as part of GWT. My usecase for this is to develop a GWT application that loads widgets/features dynamically at runtime because statically compiling all the different features (potentially hundreds) would create a huge application to download with features most users may not even care for! Secondly, I want to make use of a REST API (on a different domain/sub- domain on my server) directly from the GWT client, without the need for an RPC proxy servlet. This would simplify our development greatly, but the best I've seen for this is the GWT-Rest module, which is far from complete. So my questions are: 1. Does anyone know when RunAsynch() will be part of an official GWT release? Is it a priority? (This seems like a heavily demanded feature!) 2. Does anyone know when a full REST API module for GWT will be available? If not for a while, what is the best way to implement this?
