I'm still in process of learning GWT. So far completed the start up
tutorial and was sucessfully able to run sample applications. Now, i'm
in process to evaluate what would it need to use GWT in my current
struts / JSP /Servlet application. Here is some information about my
current application
1. Its a multi tier jsp/servlet application using struts as web
framework.
2. Its a multi step, wizard like application. User will have to make
selection on each step.
3. HTML Form elements displayed on a step depends on selection made on
previous step(s) i.e. If we should
display a particular radio button or not.
4. Form elements displayed on a step also depends on business logic
(i.e. if form element should be enabled or
disabled)
Based on my understanding so far, GWT only helps in writing a front
end (html/javascript) in java. Looking at the getting started guide i
figured out that the sample application is written in such a way that
it knows before hand (compile time) which elements to display on front
end.
My objective is to find a way to render a complete dynamic front end
based on meta information stored in database.
In my current application we store various options for a page in
database. When a page is requested we go to database to get this
information as java object & then render the object on a jsp page.
In the database we do not store the information if the item should be
displayed as checkbox or a radio button. That logic is written in jsp
which basically means we know at design time if the element should
displayed as checkbox or radiobutton.
So my questions to experts is how do i render a dymamic html page with
various form elements?
