Re: GWT frontend, non java backend
As Thomas Broyer stated the client part is only static code. So if your backend is using a REST API you could use restyGWT which is a REST client service generator to communicate between your client (in GWT) and your backend (whatever the technology is). Hope it can help :) On Friday, June 7, 2013 9:29:45 PM UTC+2, Nolan Brassard wrote: I've read a few different sources about how to create projects with a GWT front and a non-java backend.

Re: GWT frontend, non java backend
https://code.google.com/p/phpgwt/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fphpgwt%2Fsrc%2Forg%2Fphpgwt Check out the classes under phpgenerator and phpservice packages. Although it's for PHP, if you study these classes and the deferred binding capabilities of GWT you will have the idea how to realise something similar for Ruby on Rails. 2013. június 7., péntek 21:29:45 UTC+2 időpontban Nolan Brassard a következőt írta: I've read a few different sources about how to create projects with a GWT front and a non-java backend.

Re: GWT with non-Java backend
Yes, tons of people have used GWT on the front and something that isn't java on the back-end. You can transfer data using JSON, XML (but, really, don't. XML is stupid as a wire protocol), or whatever binary format you think is useful. The only caveat (and this applies to using GWT-RPC as well), is that GWT apps can only receive data 'whole'. You can not stream. So, if you were thinking of pumping 50 megabytes worth of data down to the client, you need to split it up into pieces and have the GWT client app request and process each piece one at a time. The general idea of processing 50 MB worth of stuff in a javascript app also doesn't sound like a good idea in general, as javascript isn't really fast enough to do it unless you're on WebKit+SquirrelFish, Google Chrome+V8, or Firefox 3.1 beta + tracemonkey. (Those are all beta or small market share browsers with amazing javascript interpreters).

Re: GWT with non-Java backend
I'm using .NET on the server (i miss Java, haven't had choice). Jayrock as JSON-RPC. And a custom implementation of JSON-RPC for GWT using RequestBuilder of course. http://jayrock.berlios.de/ On 1 dic, 15:43, Johan Rydberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Joshua Partogi skrev: Dear all, Has anyone worked GWT with non-Java backend (like PHP or Rails) and send it with AJAX Http request?

Re: GWT with non-Java backend
Yes, I´m working with GWT with a PHP backend and I know many people in this list also do that. It is an excellent approach if you can't have a Java backend but want to have all the benefits of GWT (except for the optimised GWT Java RPC). Basically what you should do is instead of using GWT Java RPC (extending RemoteService, RemoteServiceServlet and creating an AsyncInterface) is use the RequestBuilder class to make http calls. What you send and receive can be anything you want but JSON is what is most used. For dealing with JSON client-side you can use GWT own JSON classes and Javascript Overlay Types if you are with GWT 1.5, and for dealing with JSON serverside you can use any PHP, Ruby, etc library to encode\decode JSON. I recommend you search this list archives as there are tons of messages about what I'm telling you (even people who is using JSONP instead, or json.org JSONRequest or the ones who have created their own way of dealing with JSON client-side). Also this section of the official documentation should be useful for you: http://code.google.com/docreader/#p=google-web-toolkit-doc-1-5s=google-web-toolkit-doc-1-5t=DevGuideServerCalls Hope this helps, Martin On Sun, Nov 30, 2008 at 9:31 PM, Joshua Partogi [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: Dear all, Has anyone worked GWT with non-Java backend (like PHP or Rails) and send it with AJAX Http request?

Re: GWT with non-Java backend
I too have worked on GWT front with PHP in the backend, communicating as Martin stated using RequestBuilder and exclusively JSON. Quite simple really. I've also built a prototype Ruby backend to the same frontend and it too was pretty easy, and I'm a bit of a Ruby noob. Martin's guidance is dead on...search this area for many examples, they are there!

Re: GWT with non-Java backend
Thank you so much Martin for the hint. :-) I am more confident now to use GWT with non-Java backend. Because I thought people only use GWT with Java on the backend. Cheers.
