SmartGWT is an popular, open source, extremely rich widget library and
databinding framework for GWT, available under the LGPL. SmartGWT
Enterprise Edition (SmartGWT EE for short) is a commercially licensed
version of SmartGWT that includes Java Server side functionality,
additional tools, and a classic commercial license in lieu of the
LGPL.
For teams with existing Java functionality, SmartGWT EE provides
greatly accelerated integration with SmartGWT’s visual components. In
many cases it is possible to take existing Java methods in an
application and bind a SmartGWT grid or form to those methods without
writing any new code, simply by specifying what method to call in a
DataSource XML file.
For those using Hibernate, it’s even simpler. A Wizard within Visual
Builder allows you to simply pick any registered Hibernate entity from
a list, and SmartGWT EE will create a SmartGWT DataSource that
provides full read-write binding to that Hibernate entity. Just
provide the generated DataSource to a SmartGWT grid or form with no
other configuration, and you have a full CRUD UI: create, retrieve,
update, and delete Hibernate-managed entities. It can even execute the
complex search criteria that the FilterBuilder allows a user to
specify.
A corresponding Wizard exists for binding to database tables stored in
any popular database, again with full read-write binding. And in both
cases, you can easily add business logic that runs before or after the
Hibernate or SQL binding, which can modify the request before it
executes, modify the output, or take any other action.
