Google plugin for Eclipse withou WindowBuilder (GWT Designer)
Hello, I like Google Plugin for Eclipse, but I don't like GWT Designer. It's slow, buggy, keeps updating itself, loads terribly load and so on. Is there any chance of releasing google plugin without GWT Designer? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

I disabled that of course, but when Eclipse stars it does always stuff like updating gwt designer paletten, building some gwt designer stuff and I am minimalist I just dont want that heh :) On Jun 16, 7:02 pm, Renato Beserra renatobese...@gmail.com wrote: I don't like the GWT Designer either, but how does it cause you problems?

Re: Google plugin for Eclipse withou WindowBuilder (GWT Designer)
Hello Eric, thanks for you reply. Let me name few things because of which I don't want to use GWT designer: 1. If you hover mouse on components palette sometimes tooltip won't disapper and you have to manually press close 2. RAM usage is disaster. My Eclipse consumes with GWT Designer way more RAM then without some GWT Designer window open. 3. It hapened to me that GWT Designer did not show Widget (stack trace provided), even though code was valid (compiled well). Reparse did not help. This happened in both GWT and Swing projects (I don't know if Swing is related to GWT Designer, but I am telling that from previous experience with Window Builder Pro). 4. The sizing! GWT Designer generates widgets with literals of size (i.e. 54px, 3cm ...) and you have to nearly always rewrite this. Noone wants weird size literals in code :( Even if I want something like that 80px GWT designer does not provide some smart pre-set values. 5. Refreshing. If I am using development mode, GWT designer also needs to refresh it's view. This is incredibly annoying if you leave GWT- designer window open and doing just some tiny CSS improvements (of course you can switch to source, but sometimes you just forget ...) 6. Not sure about this one - but I don't like default naming policy of widgets. I don't really want to name my saveButton btnSave ... 7. I have plenty times experienced that Eclipse stopped responding when using GWT Designer. This is hard to prove, hard to reproduce, but trust me - it's very uncomfortable. 8. When you are using some widgets that relies on models, these models are automatically generated but contains usually null values, which is pretty useless. On the other hand, don't take me wrong. I think that this is very solid plugin for beginners or people not really experienced in design. Quick preview of widget, Morphing of widgets and even code generation is solid and there is much more. And I am happy that Google cares about developers and tries to provide them all accessible tools for development. I consider myself more productive with simply coding and no visual previews. I like my code under control and not to mess some tools with it :) I will keep an eye of next releases though. But plugin without designer would be great. Especially for somene who checkouts projects and cares about server side, not client side (i.e. tests some features with pre-made UIs). I am using latest official release. I don't usually use beta-builds. I am running Eclipse Helios on Linux Ubuntu 11.04. On Jun 16, 10:40 pm, Eric Clayberg clayb...@google.com wrote: What version of GWT Designer are you using? Have you tried the latest version which has been described as much quicker? http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit/browse_thread/threa... As to buggy, it woud be helpful to know what you are referring to. Have you submitted a bug report that we can take a look at? And to answer your last question, we do not plan to unbundle GWT Designer from the GPE. Presumably, you could just use Eclipse to uninstall that feature.

Re: Google plugin for Eclipse withou WindowBuilder (GWT Designer)
BTW, I've seen your Google IO 2011 presentation (n1) and I was surprised how fast GWT designer worked on your Windows machine (and it looked virtualized from Mac OS X if I remember correctly!). Is it possible that it's slower on Linux? With Eclipse on Sun's JRE? I guess I will try it with fresh install of Indigio, where my Eclipse installation will not be huge monster with billion of plugins if that's any better.

GWT - Update Widget when java.util.List changes
Hello, I am new here and I came to seek for advices from more experienced GWT programmers. Here is my problem: I am making AsyncCalls and they fill some collections (java.util.List) with data. These callbacks take quite a time, so by the time collections are filled, UI is fully loaded. However, widgets that are supposed to show data don't show anything. Because when they were initialized, collections were still empty. Now I need to force my collection to somehow tell my widget 'hey I have that data for you, feed yourself!', but I don't know how. I was thinking of some observer pattern, but I am not really sure. How can I solve this issue? An example would be nice! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.
