Hello all,
I have a fair bit of experience with GWT but am by no means an expert
- I have a question about I18N.
I am trying to introduce GWT UIs into a very large existing web
application where there is a requirement that language packs be
installable by the administrator of the web app.
Using static I18N like Messages and Constants is (at least on the
surface) not tenable because it requires a recompile every time a
locale is added or edited, and I'm not willing to make the GWT SDK (or
Java, for that matter) a server-side requirement. I suppose I could
make some modifications to the bootstrap process to support hot-
swapping of localized compiled JS in and out of the server. This
would obviously require getting rid of the strong hashing naming stuff
that gets applied to the GWT JS files, and I think this would require
a significant amount of work.
Going with the dynamic Dictionary method is also not ideal since the
app is very large and so a lot of strings might have to be downloaded
each time the page is loaded.
Has anyone done hot-swappable I18N in GWT before? Any tips?
Thanks,
Jason
