On the server side, you are free to use any language you want. Several people have been successful in using PHP as a backend server.
On the client side, only Java is supported. Since GWT is a java sourcecode -> javascript compiler, it is NOT possible to use other jvm languages. There has been some interest in creating a scala compiler for GWT. If you are interested, you can go through this discussion thread<http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit-contributors/browse_thread/thread/006d4339fb17803e?pli=1>, and this website <http://scalagwt.gogoego.com/>. It explains the general problems with introducing compilers for other languages, and also explains ways to overcome them. Besides the scala movement, I don't think there is any other serious work happening. --Sri On 17 May 2010 19:19, Aljosa Mohorovic <[email protected]> wrote: > i don't mean right now, only if it's technically possible in some > distant future? > is gwt strictly based on java as a language or jvm? > > Aljosa Mohorovic > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Google Web Toolkit" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]<google-web-toolkit%[email protected]> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
