Hello
I am trying android now, and i appreciate the simple code generation
of the class 'R'.
For non android user, it allows to associate a graphic element to an
id. The id given in an xml file is automatically generated in java, in
the class R.
I am thinking about an equivalent code generation for the css files in
GWT.
example :
myStyle.css
.style{
...
}
.style-dependentStyle{
...
}
#element {
...
}
would give something like
/* AUTO-GENERATED FILE. DO NOT MODIFY.*/
public final class Styles {
public static final class MyStyle {
public static final String style = "style";
public static final String style_dependentStyle =
"dependentStyle";
public static final String IDelement = "element";
}
}
which could be used like this:
widget.addStyleName(Styles.MyStyle.style);
widget.addStyleDependentName(Styles.MyStyle.style_dependantStyle);
widget.getElement.setId(Styles.MyStyle.IDelement);
The main advantage is to respect the DRY principle by avoiding boring
manual constants declaration.
This feature could be a part of the new GWT eclipse plugin
http://code.google.com/eclipse/, or a standalone eclipse plugin.
What do you think about it ?
Does anyone is interested in ?
