Howard, You can write your front in GWT via Java, and then interact with any backend you fancy. There are plenty of these tutorials out there to interact with other languages like PHP backends<https://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/JSONphp.html>using a JSON calls. See the docs <https://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/JSON.html>.
It sounds like you are deadset on C++, which you could do with a JSON service and RequestBuilder. However, you might want to consider using a Java backend still. This works for Google and their properties on AppEngine, which scales well. You can even deploy with one click from Eclipse. Sticking with a Java backend will allow you to automate all of the boilerplate plumbing using RPC, which is also far more efficient (size wise) than JSON REST. Hope that helps. Good luck with your project. Sincerely, Joseph -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
