I know this is a common request of people trying to make pluggable applications. It seems that every time someone comes up with a solution to this problem the GWT team changes the way the core linkers work and break the solution. I was wondering if anyone knows a way to dynamically load a module either with a new linker, or a different method than the traditional appending a new script element to the end of the body. I try to append a script element to the end of the body and it completely blows the document away and freezes the page in a loading mode. I found an email exchange between members of the GWT contributors group in December where they discuss new methods for the default linkers using dynamic iframes. I have been exploring this capability since 1.5 and every time I revisit it the method(hack job) I used the last time will not work. I would really like a more consistent method.
Every forum I have seen where someone asks this someone inevitably asks why, so let me head off this question by explaining. I have run into this in a few different situations, one when trying to integrate GWT "portlets" into Liferay(Java portlet). The second situation is in trying to create a dynamic binding of sorts. I have been trying to figure out a way to create a GWT portal where you could install modules and they could be added and removed dynamically without having to recompile the core, creating something similar to iGoogle or Liferay in a GWT/J2EE implementation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
