At design time in GWT Designer, the runtime environment needed to
handle a live RPC call simply does not exist. If your UI is primarily
constructed dynamically based on the results of info available at
runtime, a static UI design tool like GTW Designer (or any UI builder
for that matter) would not
In order to provide the WYSIWYG editing and rendering experience, GWT
Designer needs to start up the GWT dev mode the first time you access
it during a session. That does lead to a slow start (which is not
present in the companion tools for Swing and SWT), and is an area that
we are investigating.

I'm curious about this. In the Java case, GWT Designer's parser can
reverse engineer most hand-written code and its code generator can be
configured to match most coding styles. It is general quite forgiving
about manual refactoring and has nice support f
While I have not yet tried UIBinder on a problem in my environment, I
did try GWT Designer. Very quickly I went back to coding my UI by
hand.
My interface is largely shaped by the results of calls to a database
via a clearly defined API. That means I make a lot of GWT RPC calls
and act on the re
Totally agree with you comments, Jeff. I evaluated GWTDesigner because, generally speaking, I like
RAD tools. However, I found it very slow to start - maybe a bug or something - but, being
comparatively happy with XML, HTML and CSS I found that my workflow was smoother using UiBinder and
it was
If that is indeed the question he is asking then no one but himself can
answer it but perhaps he can come to an answer by asking himself the
following:
Am I knowledgeable in HTML and CSS and am I comfortable hand crafting my
markup? If he answers yes to this then perhaps he will prefer to use
UiBi
The true question he is probably asking is should he use a WYSIWYG tool or
write the interface by hand.
My advice would be to try both. The latter will give you more flexibility.

GWT Designer is a GUI design tool while UiBinder is an XML-based
framework for specifying GWT UIs. GWT Designer can generate GWT code
using Java or XML (UiBinder), so you can consider GWT Designer to be a
tool for using UiBinder. It would not be appropriate to compare/
contrast them (as has already
I use UiBinder and like it a lot because it allows me to do my markup using
UiBinder's HTML like XML tags which, if you like to code in HTML, is a real
benefit over coding your interface using Java. I don't but I could pass off
any one of my UiBinder xml files to a designer and they wouldn't feel l
Er, he wanted to know the difference between them and which one would be
better; and the answer is that they're not comparable.
Is Eclipse better than Java ?

UiBinder is a feature of GWT that generates Java code from XML files to
describe user interfaces.
GWT Designer is a developer tool that allows you to generate Java code *
and/or* UiBinder XML using a *designer* (RAD) rather than typing it by hand
in a text editor.

Hi ,
I would like to know the difference in UiBinder and GWT Designer like
which one is better
if i'm using GWT Designer for my interface and not using any java
code for the interface ,will i still be requiring UiBinder.
Will there be any benefit of UiBinder over GWT Designer .
Thanks
Regards
Ju
