I don't think you can use inheritance with UiBinder like that. But you can
achieve more or less what you're looking for, I think. Basically, you
create a layout view that you can use in your primary view uibinders the
same way the standard widgets are used there:
public interface MyBaseView {
void setPresenter(BaseViewPresenter presenter);
... other methods base view requires ...
}
public interface MySubView extends MyBaseView {
void setPresenter(MySubViewPresenter presenter;
...
}
public class BaseView extends Composite implements MyBaseView, HasWidgets {
public interface BaseViewPresenter {
void onButton1Clicked(ClickEvent event);
... etc ...
}
... uibinder stuff...
... ui fields/elements of base view...
/* the panel containing the sub-view */
@UiField
FlowPanel contentPanel;
private BaseViewPresenter presenter;
...constructor...
@Override
public void add(Widget w) {
contentPanel.add(w);
}
@Override
public void clear() {
contentPanel.clear();
}
@Override
public Iterator<Widget> iterator() {
return contentPanel.iterator();
}
@Override
public boolean remove(Widget w) {
return contentPanel.remove(w);
}
}
The BaseView.ui.xml file has your buttons in the base view and of course
the content panel, nothing exotic.
public class SubEditView extends Composite implements MySubView {
public interface MySubViewPresenter {
void onSave();
....
}
... uibinder stuff ...
... ui fields/elements of sub view, sub view presenter declaration...
/* the base view that wraps this sub view */
@UiField
BaseView baseView;
... constructor, class methods, click handlers delegating to presenter,
etc ...
}
<!DOCTYPE ui:UiBinder SYSTEM "http://dl.google.com/gwt/DTD/xhtml.ent";>
<ui:UiBinder xmlns:ui="urn:ui:com.google.gwt.uibinder"
xmlns:g="urn:import:com.google.gwt.user.client.ui"
xmlns:v="urn:import:com.example.app.client.ui">
<v:BaseView ui:field="baseView">
... sub view xml content here ...
</v:CatalogViewLayout>
</ui:UiBinder>
As for the validation you want to encapsulate, it would probably be better
to put that in a presenter, but it could easily be done in an abstract
presenter, allowing you to share the code that does validation (and tells
the view to show errors) in onSave().
