[gwt-contrib] GWT,jsni() implemented as rebinding method
This morning I read the Goktug's slides and was surprised by the GWT.jsni() method. It is a nice use case for rebinding methods. I just added a version of GWT.jsni() to HelloRebinding sample, implementing it as a rebinding method (no compiler mods). It took me just 30 minutes of coding to add an extension to support this: JsniUtil.jsni($wnd.alert(#), message); - Usage: https://github.com/andrestesti/gwt-rebindingmethods/blob/master/samples/hellorebinding/src/com/google/gwt/sample/hellorebinding/client/MainWidget.java#L65 - Definition:https://github.com/andrestesti/gwt-rebindingmethods/blob/master/samples/hellorebinding/src/com/google/gwt/sample/hellorebinding/client/util/JsniUtil.java#L38 - Generator: https://github.com/andrestesti/gwt-rebindingmethods/blob/master/samples/hellorebinding/src/com/google/gwt/sample/hellorebinding/rebind/JsniSnippetGenerator.java#L32 Regards. - Andrés Testi -- http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups GWT Contributors group.

Re: [gwt-contrib] GWT,jsni() implemented as rebinding method
I actually implemented with simple eval for demonstration purposes but probably yours is preferable :) Yes, GWT.jsni is one of the use cases for method rebinding; that was something I was discussing as part of the original discussion. In reality GWT.jsni is better to be implementable without native method definitions so we could eventually take native methods out of the compiler. There are also other use cases like String.format, GWT.debugger and GWT.create itself. The ideal solution should cover all to avoid redundant features in the SDK.

GWT.debugger() is a controvesial case because Java doesn't has a semantically equivalent for it.. Yes, that is also true for the GWT.jsni case. I think at the end there should be 2 types of rewriters; one for java and one for javascript and they should do real method replacement. Developer can choose either one. It looks like you are really interested in this. Can you also improve your proposal with real method rewriting? - Andrés Testi El lunes, 16 de diciembre de 2013 16:48:52 UTC-3, Goktug Gokdogan escribió: I actually implemented with simple eval for demonstration purposes but probably yours is preferable :) Yes, GWT.jsni is one of the use cases for method rebinding; that was something I was discussing as part of the original discussion.
