To add to Paul's answer: the practice that Ray Ryan advocated is not to prevent GWT-RPC from picking up the wrong implementation.
Rather, it is to prevent GWT-RPC from including all possible implementations, even those that you will never use. For example, if you use List<X> the GWT-RPC magic-generator will have to include compiled javascript that implements java.util.Vector class, because it will have no way of knowing that the server will never return such a type. So being specific with ArrayList<X> keeps the size of your compiled javascript as small as possible. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
