[gwt-contrib] GWT-Query - needs forking?

2010-03-16 Thread Richard Vowles
Hi all,

Not sure how to get a hold of the person responsible for GWT-Query,
which was spoken of in terms of including it in GWT itself. This is my
last ditch attempt - the project appears to have died in May, and I'd
like to get committer access to the project.

Ta!
Richard

[gwt-contrib] Re: HtmlUnit OOPHM client

2009-09-17 Thread Richard Vowles

Am I to understand from this that someone else (other than me) has
implemented a OOPHM client for HtmlUnit?

And there are quite a few fixes in it, in case anyone wants to update
the lib.

[gwt-contrib] Re: UiBinder - ids vs classes and html element binding

2009-08-28 Thread Richard Vowles

No - more like (for example), when it hits a  it always creates
a Google LabelElement - say I want to create a MyLabelElement instead
(which does some extra thing, which in my case it does). I can't do it
without hacking it (which I have done). Happy to file an Issue on
this...

[gwt-contrib] Re: UiBinder - ids vs classes and html element binding

2009-08-27 Thread Richard Vowles

I wouldn't mind some convincing urls to backup this viewpoint if you
have any :-) The entire rest of the team here is saying "id id id",
"class bad, id good". Searching for "html id brittle" wasn't very
enlightening :-)

I have also found that there seems to be no way of overriding the
class that is created when hitting HTML elements - it is hard coded in
UiBinderWriter to look only in the Google classes for elements with
TAG. Descending and fixing it for UiBinderWriter was relatively
straight forward (even tho I had to put the replacement class in
com.google...), but because all of the important methods are private
in UiBinderGenerator, I had to replace that and copy the methods,
which was triple yuk. Good to have the source though :-)

Solving the problem would be easy (i.e. allowing people to override
and replace their own classes only if they wanted to) by the
UiBinderGenerator asking for the UiBinderWriter through the GWT.create
mechanism and the right methods being protected in the Writer instead
of package private... You guys may already have a different solution
so it that is more elegant though.

[gwt-contrib] Re: UiBinder first impressions

2009-08-26 Thread Richard Vowles

One of the things I have noticed with the UIBinder is that you can't
set the id on the fields - which is pretty important for css styling
and testing. I seem to have to set them in code.



causes it to fail to compile. I know id is an attribute of getElement
() but since this is a very common thing to do, I'd have expected
ui:id or some such (or just id being acceptable). Am I missing
something?

Not spamming the group but spamming the files section is pretty
