I have found that pure GWT works best, at least for our application. Since our app is used by thousands of users at a given time, we wanted to keep the code that gets downloaded and interpreted on the browser to a minimum. Also to avoid having to look up different vendors for fixes, etc. we chose to use just Google GWT. Yes, we had to write a few CSS styles on our own, but given the type of application and the scalability requirements, we found that pure GWT works best. The money spent on a graphic artists services for creating good looking light weight CSS and icons has paid back already.
For the admin side of our app we had the first version with SmartGWT, but have now migrated that to pure GWT. SmartGWT is a good toolkit but to address scalability and load conditions, our tests (using GWTRPCCommLayer and JMeter, combination et-al) found that pure GWT was definitely performing better. So we did away with SmartGWT. - Sunit Katkar http://sunitkatkar.blogspot.com/ On Sat, Nov 13, 2010 at 6:13 AM, gcstang <[email protected]> wrote: > Not sure about UIBinder never tried it, however I know if you use > SmartGWT and put GWT panels on it they work. > > I've also tried the GWT Code Splitting, GWT Visualizations and GWT Log > and they all work as well. > > Hope that helps some. > > On Nov 12, 4:27 pm, Sachin Dole <[email protected]> wrote: > > but isnt it true that you cant use uibinder with smartgwt? isnt it true > that > > if you use smartgwt widgets and put them inside of a gwt panel, things > dont > > look as you'd expect them to? we have avoided mixing plain gwt widgets > with > > smartgwt widgets because widgets dont show up in the right place or dont > > show up at all. plus, smart gwt's styling mechanism doesnt apply to the > gwt > > widgets. > > > > i guess my interoperability i meant mixing smartgwt and gwt widgets > together > > in the same app within each other... > > > > thanks for your input! > > > > On Thu, Nov 11, 2010 at 11:48 AM, Dan Billings <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > Yeah I find it fully interoperable. > > > > > On Nov 11, 7:17 am, gcstang <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Not sure what you mean by interoperable, if you could give examples > it > > > > would help. > > > > > > I've been using SmartGWT for a while on an Admin type tool for our > > > > commerce suite and so far it has been very useful. > > > > > > On Nov 10, 11:29 am, Sachin Dole <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > > Hey Guys, > > > > > > > At our workplace, we use smartgwt and like it because of the > widgets it > > > > > provides but hate it cuz its not interoperable with gwt.
