Hi,
For the interface default method problem, it is related to ui:binder way of
using setter methods.
For exemple, if you have this interface:
public interface TestInterface {
public default void setFoo(String bar) {
System.out.println(bar);
}
}
Then this class extending a component and implementing the interface:
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.TextBox;
public class TestTextBox extends TextBox implements TestInterface {
}
If you call the setFoo via the uibinder it will fail
<x:TestTextBox foo="bar" />
The error message is :
[ERROR] Class TestTextBox has no appropriate setFoo() method:
<x:TestTextBox foo='bar'>
This kind of interfaces can be used to extends default gwt inputs with new
properties, and delegate the action to a helper called by the defaults
methods.
