I found the following overview interesting too:
http://www.over-look.com/site/index.php/documentation/techblog/item/gwt-2-1-tutorial-1-mvp-the-model
The DTO model described there seems a little involved. If I understand
correctly, there is a client-side and server-side version of the DTO
for each of your model objects. The role of the latter seems to be to
support JDO/JPA. I have recently moved away from JDO and am a very
happy user of Objectify. As a consequence, both my server (objectify)
and my client (gwt-platform) are type-agnostic when it comes to model
objets. So another question I have:
* Does using GWT 2.1 MVP model forces me to annotate all my domain
objects with @DataTransferObject and have them inherit from Record?
Cheers,
Philippe
