Re: [gwt-contrib] Announcing GWT 2.0.1

2010-02-04 Thread John LaBanca 
Another important change that we forgot to mention is that *new applications
created by webAppCreator now default to standards mode* instead of quirks
mode.

This makes it easier for new apps to take advantage of the new LayoutPanels,
introduced in GWT 2.0, which only work in standards mode.  However, there
are some widgets, such as StackPanel, which generally do not work in
standards mode.  You can look at a widget's JavaDoc to see if it only work
in standards mode or quirks mode.

If you use the Google Plugin for Eclipse to run JUnit tests for your
project, you will need to pass in the "-standardsMode" compiler argument to
run them in standards mode.  This has always been true, but its especially
important now that new apps default to standards mode.  The plugin team is
working on changes to make this easier to do.

   1. Open Run/Debug Configurations.
   2. Select your GWT JUnit test.
   3. Click on the Arguments tab.
   4. Add the following to the VM arguments:
   -Dgwt.args="-out www-test -standardsMode"

   Note that *gwt.args* replaces *all* gwt specific arguments in the "GWT
   JUnit" tab, so you need to pass the output directory, log level, output
   style, and production mode settings if you want to use non-default values
   for these fields.  In the above example, you can see that we pass the output
   directory as www-test.
   5. Run your test.


Thanks,
John LaBanca

[gwt-contrib] Announcing GWT 2.0.1

2010-02-02 Thread Miguel Méndez 
The GWT 2.0.1 point release is now available for download. It contains fixes
for bugs found in the 2.0.0 release.

Potentially breaking changes and fixes

   - Fixed a bug in how code generators collect method arguments from
   generated source, which impacted the Messages interfaces generated for
   UiBinder template files. In GWT 2.0, such argument names were incorrectly
   changed to ARGn. Most GWT applications will be unaffected, but external
   systems relying on these names may need to be updated.
   - The development mode server will, by default, only bind to localhost
   which will break cross-machine debugging. You can get the old behavior by
   specifying -bindAddress 0.0.0.0. Please see issue
(#4322)
   for more details. For webAppCreator-generated ant files, you can pass this
   with ant -Dgwt.args="-bindAddress 0.0.0.0" devmode.
   - The CurrencyList/CurrencyData APIs are now public - if you were relying
   upon these classes in their non-public location, you should only need to
   update your imports.

Noteworthy Fixed Issues

   - UiBinder Image class with resource attribute, removes styles on that
   image 
(#4415
   )
   - Widgets lose focus if its placed on FocusPanel (Opera, Safari)
(#1471
   )
   - Standard.css missing new layout styles
(#4429
   )
   - Remove method in SplitLayoutPanel is broken
(#4217
   )
   - Splitter constructor hard codes the background color of the splitter to
   white 
(#4335
   )
   - Image should provide method to set alternative text
(#4335
   )
   - CssResource cannot parse unescaped '-', '_' in class selectors and
   unknown at-rules
(#3946
   )
   - Focusable implementation breaks ScrollPanels in Safari
(#1313
   )
   - RequestBuilder restricted to GET and POST
(#3388
   )
   - HTMLTable.Cell.getElement() calls getCellFormatter().getElement() with
   row and column swapped RequestBuilder restricted to GET and POST
(#3757
   )
   - MenuBar steals focus when hovered
(#3884
   )
   - TabLayoutPanel tabs don't line up properly on IE
(#4447
   )
   - webAppCreator produces ant build files which support the gwt.args
   property for passing additional flags to the gwtc and devmode rules, such as
   ant -Dgwt.args="-style PRETTY" gwtc.

See the GWT issue tracker for the complete list of bug fixes and
enhancements
in
this release.
