Re: RPC vs HTTP requests
RPC serializes basic java objects and your javabeans based on them, giving you a nice model for programming since in GWT it's all Java when programming. If you use HTTP, you can post name-value string pairs, and then you'll have to process the response string. It's just much less powerful, but may work fine for you. I mean, the traditional web browser uses this technique, but it does mean handling errors and URL encoding your data to send and parsing the response. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
No problem It's all good! Our architect is trying to contact them directly now because he said it sounds so goofy he can't believe it's the case since the license itself has no such references and claims to be the authoritative document (so anything else on other pages would not supersede the license itself). Interesting that they used to have that clause in the license. Maybe they've fixed it finally, or maybe they are just playing games, but that seems overly odd. Anyway, we're still looking and wish GWT incubator had better paging grids, which I understand they are working on, but when it will come out is hard to know. I know that we found it took a lot of code to just make a paging table for one object (our group object), with a detail page to allow for updating and 'create like' type functionality. When we looked at our model, we realized we'd be doing hundreds of these, and the pain seemed real. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
Thanks. I just read about that, which means it should be even easier to debug and work with for us Java folks. I like what I see in GXT so far, but admittedly very little. I'm most interested in the DTO issue and if there are good ways to send HashMaps and the like to avoid creating so many of them, or whether the benefits of DTOs outweigh it with the stronger and simpler typing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
@Martin - Why would you want to attack me just because I'm evaluating toolkits? I understand our application domain just fine, and we've built multiple applications in JSP technologies that are in our area of expertise and have been running a profitable software business for 10 years now. Apparently you have an innate ability to review toolkits and understand all of their complexity, options and licensing terms quickly and easily. You are very blessed indeed. The fact that it takes me time to review them shouldn't mean I'm confused. It is your attitude that has led me to reconsider sgwt because why buy a product from people who seem to think its users are not worthy? In our case, we expect to license both under AGPL and commercial, so GPL should be fine as all of our code would be similarly available. When selling a commercial license of our product, we can do so assuming we've also purchased a commercial license of the library for our developers. So it should not be a huge issue, but we will review it closely (our lawyers also must be clueless because they also take time to evaluate, and it's just words). As to GXT product capabilities, that is something we'll have to evaluate, fortunately not worrying about your concern for how long it takes us to do so. @Tom, I'll take a look. I've not heard of even qooxdoo before, but a quick check shows it's got a lot of stuff in there for a 1.0 release. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
We'll investigate GXT as well. I have to say that the licensing is more straightforward with GXT because the free/commercial tiers are not related to functionality in GXT versus SGWT. But if you go want OSS in a commercial product (cheap?), you'd need to stick with LGPL of SGWT over the GPL of GXT. But once you go commercial licensing, GXT looks more straightforward. How is GXT in terms of ease of data source integration with Java backends? Not sure too that GXT is on version 2 while ExtJS is version 3. Does the latest GXT include the latest of ExtJS under the hood? I suppose I can check on their web forums for such details. But as a GWT developer, it makes sense to look at both if you need more robust widgets. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
With SmartGWT Pro and EE, you can literally open up a visual tool and create a fully functional CRUD interface to Hibernate by just picking an existing Hibernate entity from a list. That's not offered in any other GWT product, and it would be hard to argue that anything could be simpler or faster than that.. Does the visual builder generate GWT code yet? I agree that any quick eval is bound to fail, as just s'gwt itself is quite large and needs time to digest and play with. Then there's the integration of whatever you do choose with other toolkits you may need that just add to the time to eval. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
EXT is GPL while Smart is LGPL, and of course both offer commercial licenses. LGPL can be used commercially, while GPL cannot, so that could be a consideration.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
We're just now evaluating this ourselves, but we do like the look of their large variety of widgets, but it is big and takes time to really evaluate it all and there are myriad options from LGPL through proprietary EE. No doubt, much depends on your app's needs. Ours is more business-focused, so I think it's a good match, hence our eval will begin in earnest in January. GWT's widgets just don't have much to show for grids tied to server data for ACID/CRUD operations, and the DataSource concept seems powerful should it pan out, which we expect it will from what we've read. But any real-world experiences are most welcome. I am a bit concerned about some items like turn off Firebug because it runs inordinately slow -- why their JS is overly impacted is not clear. I have seen some odd painting issues in the showcase examples on FF3.5/Win7. Do check out their forums though to see what others are saying and reporting as they may match what you intend to do. I'm also not sure what it means to integrate SmartGWT with CKEditor yet, but we want to use the more powerful layout capabilities of CKEditor. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Use smartgwt or not
In the end, it's all JS to the client, so not sure what wrapper would really mean. The downside may be they can't get the same optimizations that come with the Java-to-JS compiler as it increases in capability and can gen browser-specific versions. But if you need to move now, GWT just doesn't have professional quality widgets for enterprise solutions. It's almost like a step backwards from JSP when you see how much effort it takes to develop a table with sortable columns and have to transmit data (damn those DTOs) client-server when before it was all in the server. SmartGWT has some good solutions now, but you do have to wonder how long they'll command that lead. Then again, if you like SmartGWT, you (or Google) could use those classes to eventually be all-GWT-based and no longer rely on SmartClient, or of course develop comparable widgets of their own from the ground up. But how long will that take? There's no promise of it coming is there? And can you wait that long? It's a conundrum for us right, now, that's for sure. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: [ANN] SmartGWT 2.0 Released
It's only because our plans are for our product to be open source, and while PRO may indeed work better out of the box, it creates licensing conflicts to include a large commercial component that would affect both the client and server code. The LGPL widgets definitely are winners. Unfortunately, we have also noted a condescending attitude in many forum replies, no doubt the result of dealing with so many newbies like myself who are trying to figure it all out so we can make the most informed decision possible. The one downside I see for the product -- ironically enough -- is that it seems to support so many options that it's much harder to evaluate and discern what goes with what or how to put it all together if you are taking a particular approach. It is great that it supports these myriad features and options, don't get me wrong, but it is quite an experience trying to get through all the material, all the various samples (many of which won't apply to our situation), and trying to select which approach to take, wondering if there are efficient trade-offs, etc. All these product variations (LGPL, PRO, Power, EE), GWT-vs-JS libraries and documentation and samples, and options may seem clear to you, but they most definitely are not to newbies. We are having trouble finding a clear path for users like us who will be using the GUI to interface with an established Java framework that has public interfaces for all clients implemented with Java objects that themselves handle all of the persistence, security enforcement, etc. so that the GUI calls the same interfaces available to other non-browser systems that may just want to use HTTP POST of name-value pairs, or perhaps SOAP, or perhaps just posting XML/REST, iPhone/smartphone, etc. There's even questions about how the LGPL version numbers match the EE version numbers, how to test drive the latest PRO without having access to the other features and documentation that only adds to our confusion, and one feature we thought would be a huge boost, the visual builder, does not appear to generate s'gwt code yet. So that is why we investigate our options as we eval the new 2.0 widgets and look forward to the new PRO 2.0 release to demo that incorporates them, etc. After all, much of the discussion about the troubles of using DTOs may be resolved using more flexible HashMaps interfaces which GWT-RPC can transmit easily.

Re: Why Label widget chose to use div instead of label?
I agree, and it would have been better name Text or TEXT to match the setText() methods and to go in parallel with the HTML widget. But bad choice of names is impossible to fix once they are done, and anybody who's ever written an API knows that we all get them wrong from time to time. There's no issue with divs or how the Label widget works, just that the when writing widgets for HTML-based solutions, Label would have mapped nicer to label, and a Text widget would have mapped to an HTML-escaped widget that just contains text (and not markup). That's just my 2 cents. I built my own simple widgets using GWT, so it's not like it can't be done, just that it's not out of the box. No problem at all really, just part of the learning curve. But I do love GWT, and once the holidays are over, I'll investigate SmartGWT further to determine if its widgets are nicer to work with for building business apps. Then the real question is do I deal with proprietary SmartGWT PRO/EE or just stick with the LGPL version and GWT-RPC to plug into their DataSource scheme. It's just not clear to me yet whether SmartClient folks are really committed to GWT since much of their toolset is still JS-based (like ExtJS).

Re: plz help - Label + font size
In general, CSS should be used to affect such things as they are external, tunable, skinnable, etc. You can use addStyleName() to add any styles (CSS classes actually) you want to the label, or if all your labels should be the same, you can set .gwt-Label to use any common styles for all labels, etc. Or if you put a style on the container that holds the Label, you can then set the styles so it applies to all Labels in such a container using .ContainerStyleName .gwt-Label . -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: plz help - Label + font size
There are lots of ways, but basically, create a label you manage a bit
Label mylabel = new Label(myText);
mylabel.addStyleName(test);
Then in your css:
.test { font-size: 10pt; }
This sets a CSS class so you can make it do whatever you want...
Of you could put a class on the container to limit the built-in class
(gwt-Label) that's assigned to the Label widget.
lc.addStyleName(mycontainer);
and in your CSS:
.mycontainer .gwt-Label { font-size: 10pt; }
This would set all labels in the container to use the same.
If you want the Label to use a span instead of a div, use InlineLabel.
Hope this helps... but you really should understand HTML/DOM and CSS a bit
before you attempt to program w/ GWT. I'm certainly no expert myself.

Re: JavaDoc Annotation to Skip Method Compilation
Thanks for the tip on the on the issue number. I confess, I don't really understand the super-source solution, or even how it actually solves the problem. I've resigned myself to know that I'll never be able to build a data-object for the client and then subclass that for the server side because most of our server side objects already inherit from other classes and often have logging components, authentication checks, etc. that would make it pretty complicated. Maybe the server-only option is too complicated to implement sanely, but it sure seemed alluring that the client code would be written in Java and we'd get some real cross-benefits, but I think it's more myth than reality regarding how these can be shared/reused, which is a shame when you consider the various data validations (required/or not, min/max lengths/values, legal characters, etc.) even for simple data objects end up being duplicated, one for the client side and the other for the server side. The one upside of JSP/servlet is that there was no client-side, but now we're moving back to the days of needing two distinct apps, one written for the client, and the other written for the server.

Re: Simple Label+TextBox combo
Let me digest that since I confess I'm more HTML-oriented than CSS for such things. I'm not sure what it means for the nameAndLabel panel in float: left panel or position: relative panel means. Is this a type of panel that does this (AbsolutePanel?) or just a CSS option to give a HorizontalPanel/VerticalPanel/FlexTable/Grid depending on how I'm laying out the series of input fields with labels. Also, not sure how this resolves the label-input field since the Label() object does not appear to emit a label tag, just a div (or span if it's InnerLabel), and it's generally hard to assign unique IDs to all my input fields since my popup window that accepts the data is not restricted to just one at a time (our users often bring up two as they compare or the like). So it's easy to name them, but not id them. In HTML, I could do this by putting the input inside the label so they were auto-associated. I'll give your CSS solution a try and see how that works me as I'm slowly gaining CSS experience, and wanted to avoid having to do too much in CSS because GWT resolves many browser-anomalies, so the CSS needs to be basic enough to work everywhere easily.

How hard is this to do? Is the process to try to copy a Widget like RadioButton as my new object that emits the label tags for my input field, or is there a more GWT-approved way to create such a widget for my needs? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: css file location
So, let's say your project base is com.company.gwt.

And you should have no public tag in your gwt.xml, otherwise you can put it the folder it specifies instead of the default 'public'. You should see that when you save the Project.css, a copy should be automatically put into your war area like: war/com.company.gwt/Project.css Of course, if your gwt.xml has a module rename-to='mymodule'/, then this would be: war/mymodule/Project.css That should work unless I'm missing something and presume your code is otherwise compiling correctly and reporting no errors, etc. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Simple Label+TextBox combo
I have found that using InnerLabel with InnerHTML and a TextBox, I can come close to making it cleaner HTML than the overhead of a table just to put a label and input field together, with something like: FlowPanel nameAndLabel = new FlowPanel(); InlineLabel label = new InlineLabel(Name); TextBox nameField = new TextBox(); nameField.setValue(Bob); nameAndLabel.add(label); nameAndLabel.add( new InlineHTML(br/) ); nameAndLabel.add(nameField); But the Label class doesn't actually generate a label tag, so the label is not also associated with the TextBox for accessibility (it's just a span). The idea of having labeled input fields is so basic, that there must be a nicer solution. I noted that RadioButton does a good job of associating the label with the radio button itself. Is there something comparable in GWT 2 to make the label/TextBox (or other input widgets) go together to produce simple HTML like: labelNamebr/input /label Thanks for any tips -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

We'd love to do it, but I suspect it's non-trivial, and if it is, then I'm sure others would like the ability since it would allow you to pass a server object into a client object to set some state without needing the method itself be part of the javascript generation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Import java.net can not be resolved in Server mode
I have no idea what you are asking, but you give no example of the problem. Since the Java compile is just a java compile (nothing GWT about it), I'm sure you can use import java.net.*; in your server side code. Google does provide another compiler to convert all the java code intended for the client -- which is compiled to javascript -- not java bytecode -- and it may have its own issues since you can only reference a limited set of the JRE standard classes (and it really doesn't use those classes which are in Java, but has its own versions that are client-ready to be converted to javascript). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: GWT Developer Plugin works only sometimes
Upgrading from 1.7 seems fraught with peril. The docs even suggest that you install on a clean install of Eclipse, which is what I did because prior to that, my own attempt resulted in much confusion. As the gwt.xml, it appears that there was a bug (supposedly fixed for RC 2) regarding uppercase characters in the gwt.xml file name. I went with all lowercase letters and it seemed happy. I also found that I had to add -Xms100m to my debug launch param for the JRE VM to avoid module load failures.

Re: textbox + event questions
The KeyUp handler fires once the key has been processed, so when you check your widget, it should already contain the character. When you use KeyDown, you can even block the character because you are handling the event before the widget has it, so when you check your widget, it's always one character stroke behind. This is particularly confusing if they've selected all and click DELETE, since the KeyDown check will still show all of the original data before the delete takes place. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: GWT PCI Compliance Toolkit
The real benefit of your service is that you've provided a GWT widget/module we can install by downloading it from your secure server so that the CC information is entered on my page, but your widget actually captures the CC info and submits it for processing to your server directly so our web site never touches CC data and thus can avoid PCI compliance? But it somehow is able to communicate with my code (some sort of event listener?) to tell me success/failure of the payment? I know that most merchant services companies offer tools like this, though most are redirect to their site to do the payment, and then redirect back to your site with success/failure.

Re: incubator's PagingScrollTable(pagination+Sorting)
I think the example you have also loads all rows and doesn't use page fetching to load only the first page, waiting until they click next page to actually retrieve additional rows. It seems the example gets all rows, so the sorting is all local and works on all data, no additional fetching takes place. Also, I noted in your onRowSelection() callback, you use: int rowIdx = set.iterator().next().getRowIndex(); String id = pagingScrollTable.getDataTable().getHTML(rowIdx, 0); Message m = tableModel.getMessageById(Long.parseLong(id)); I wondered why you took your ArrayList and then created the HashMap based on ID, and it seems use use this scheme to get the selected row object. But couldn't you just use the paging scroll table's method to get the selected object directly: int rowIdx = set.iterator().next().getRowIndex(); Message m = pagingScrollTable.geRowValue(rowIdx); Or is there some other reason for your retrieval method?

Re: GWT PCI Compliance Toolkit
Isn't most PCI compliance related to the server? GWT only holds the information a short time to make a payment and shouldn't normally hold on to the data after submitting it for processing. How does your GWT help with PCI compliance since this would also require your server and server code to be compliant. Furthermore, if using a payment gateway, you shouldn't even have to store the payment information locally and thus avoid most PCI compliance issues. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: GWT PCI Compliance Toolkit
This has gone off-topic, so I won't belabor my point, but the PCI principles clearly show it's more geared towards the server-side, as the browser itself never had to be PCI compliant or any such rubbish. And no GWT interface tool can ensure PCI compliance either. A server that has gone through the compliance analysis is key, so if that part is taken over with the GWT interface, then I surely understand that. The core of the PCI DSS is a group of principles and accompanying requirements, around which the specific elements of the DSS are organized: *Build and Maintain a Secure Network* *Requirement 1:* Install and maintain a firewall configuration to protect cardholder data *Requirement 2:* Do not use vendor-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters *Protect Cardholder Data* *Requirement 3:* Protect stored cardholder data *Requirement 4:* Encrypt transmission of cardholder data across open, public networks *Maintain a Vulnerability Management Program* *Requirement 5:* Use and regularly update anti-virus software *Requirement 6:* Develop and maintain secure systems and applications *Implement Strong Access Control Measures* *Requirement 7:* Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know *Requirement 8:* Assign a unique ID to each person with computer access *Requirement 9:* Restrict physical access to cardholder data *Regularly Monitor and Test Networks* *Requirement 10:* Track and monitor all access to network resources and cardholder data *Requirement 11:* Regularly test security systems and processes *Maintain an Information Security Policy* *Requirement 12:* Maintain a policy that addresses information security -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Redistributing GWT apps in a commercial software
I'm not an expert (or even a lawyer ;), but most of the third-party stuff appears to be related to gwt-dev.jar. Heck, I don't even know what that JAR is since it's not in my WEB-INF/lib. I only have gwt-servlet.jar and that has no third-party stuff so it's just under the Apache 2 license you expect of GWT. My guess is you don't redistribute any of the other third party stuff, so it shouldn't matter. And even if you do, it seems that they all have compatible licenses that will allow you to use it in commercial software. I didn't see any GPL code mentioned, for example. But if you do ship that gwt-dev.jar, you should also include references to those parts and give them credit just like Google did with respect to those components as you can use them, you just need to give them credit.

Re: Enter key on dialog close button results in enter key processed by other widget
It seems that it doesn't really matter. The DialogBox itself works fine,
and whether I call setFocus() immediately or through a DeferredCommand, the
result is the same.
What is not clear is why there is a KeyUp event fired at all. I am not
even listening for keyup in the dialog. I just have a close button that I
give the focus to, so when Enter is pressed, it auto-clicks the close
button for me. This I see is working as expected because I get an onClick
event sent to my button.
I removed the setFocus() call in the onClick() event handler of the dialog's
close button, and then it fires the onClick event as expected and I see no
KeyUp event.
But if I put the setFocus() call in the onClick() event handler of the
dialog's close button, it first fires the onClick event as expected, but I
then get a KeyUp event on the TextField that received the focus (it does
have a KeyUp handler registered).
Here's the close button's onClick code:
closeButton.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {
public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
Object src = event.getSource();
GWT.log(ExceptionDialog onClick source: + src.getClass()
+ ; event: + event.toDebugString(),null);
dialog.hide();
if ( giveFocusBackTo != null )
{
DeferredCommand.addCommand(new Command() {
public void execute() {
giveFocusBackTo.setFocus(true);
giveFocusBackTo = null;
return;
}
});
}
}
});
If I comment out the giveFocusBackTo.setFocus(true), it works as expected,
but when I return from the dialog, my field doesn't have the focus that I'd
like it to have.If I have it like above, I'll get both an onClick and a
KeyUp event:
[INFO] ExceptionDialog onClick source: class
com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.Button; event: event: ClickEvent:
[INFO] myhandler keyup source: class
com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.PasswordTextBox; event: event:
KeyUpEvent:[13];
So the question is why does setting the focus in the dialog box cause a
KeyUp event to fire, but if I don't do the focus, only the click occurs and
no keyup event occurs?

Siegfried, what is the mechanism to start with a login page view, then switch to the application view once authenticated, but still using the same base HTML page? How do you swap out the login page layout and put in the new one? And presumably if your RPC shows they are no longer logged in, it can then revert back and display the login page view again. Is there a way to create these as separate modules (new to all of this) and then have them swap in/out? And it seems like there would be more issues for memory leaks and such doing this as you'd certainly need to be sure to clear out all objects in the other views as they change. I know it's possible as I've seen in in gmail, switching from inbox to contacts, etc., but not clear how to make it work.

Re: CSS file issue + possible bug in GWT 1.7
I've reported this issue, too. It seems odd, but if you don't put a full path, it assumes it's in the generated javascript area, but that area is blown away during each compile, so it's not clear where to define the CSS in Eclipse so that after the compile it puts the CSS back in there. If you put the slash, then it's rooted at the /, not the webapp's context path. Frustrating, but don't know the solution other than to keep it in the HTML file where it works as expected, though doesn't follow the module model of ensuring the CSS is kept with the module. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: CSS file issue + possible bug in GWT 1.7
I only started with GWT 1.7, so I can't speak about that. But here's what I have in my gwt.xml: !-- Specify public resources that will be copied to the module -- public path=public/common/public public path=public/login/public !-- Style sheets we use from the public paths above -- stylesheet src=esf.css/ stylesheet src=login.css/ So, when my module loads, it will insert the link tags to pull in esf.css and login.css from the 'module path' generated by the GWT Compiler. Because my project has multiple gwt.xml files, I segmented the public area into a 'public/common' for our base styles used in all modules, and another 'public/login' for just the login module. Then I can reference both CSS files using simple stylesheet entries in the gwt.xml file. What I found is that my module (module rename-to='esfgwt_login') folder war/esfgwt_login not only contains the javascript, but it also has a copy of the CSS. I guess you can also put images and javascript files in the public area if you want them to be automatically included, but for me, that's a bit more rare since we don't have much javascript/images that we share (we're using image bundles for most images) which have their own scheme. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Annotate method/constructor as not serializable for RPC
So the answer is no, this is not yet possible with GWT. Does anybody know if 2.0 solves this? It really seems rather simple to have an annotation that tells the GWT compiler to not even look at a method when it compiles the javascript, and it would certainly streamline programmer code. With all the talk about the savings of Guice/Gin, etc. relying heavily on annotations to reduce coding, why not implement this feature? Oh well...hoping the powers that be can resolve it in the near future so I don't have to my server library depending on client library objects to generate them since there's no way for the client library to do this itself as it will reference a server object that isn't serializable and should have to be since we don't want it to ever go to the client. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Is data on GWT pages secure from attack?
On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 10:34 AM, gwtfanb0y siegfried.b...@googlemail.comwrote: I would say that every Web Application which has its security only inside the Frontend (Browser) is per default insecure. If an evil person is smart, he can manipulate the JavaScript and make invisible forms visible, submit not verified data and can change the current userid password when stored inside the client. If the javascript comes from my site, then we're evil. I just want to be sure if the user frames our site or anything unexpected that javascript loaded from other sites can't see the javascript/objects that we loaded. If the user can see my userid and password, then all is lost because no login form would be secure as they all accept a userid and password. I suspect it's not possible for javascript loaded from another site, evil or not, to access the userid/password in the page/javascript data from my system. At least I hope so! To prevent this you have to include business-security, i am using spring security and have collected very good experience with it. Inside the business-site, think that every incoming request could be manipulated, so you have to add strong verification processes. With spring security you can manage roles and permissions inside the SecurityContext (located on the server) which is much more secure than implementing RPC with username password as values. Well, there is always server-side security. But if you just trust session-level security that uses cookies to id the session, then there's the known XSRF attack if the person moves to an evil site without logging off (which is frequent enough in my experience) or otherwise ending the server side session. They can't steal the data, but they can send in a request that itself my then cause trouble for you. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Is data on GWT pages secure from attack?
On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 12:00 PM, Jason Essington jas...@greenrivercomputing.com wrote: In general you seem to be talking about attacks that would be handled by the browser's Same Origin Policy. This does segregate js loaded from different places to prevent that sort of thing. That's the real key, I think. Thanks for confirming but if the uses shouldn't have the data, then you shouldn't have sent it in the first place. remember, the world beyond your server is hostile and never to be trusted. Well, they give me the userid and password to login, so it doesn't have to be secret to them, though I wouldn't my UI to otherwise show the password any further, just store it for other RPCs in the future. One solution mentioned for XSS/XSRF is to not rely on server-side sessions since these are often in cookies, so if a bad site can use the user's browser to send a request to a good site they are logged into, they could trick it to doing so. So they suggest creating another unique id that is then passed in all RPC calls so that you can confirm the RPC is really from the client app you expect (the attacks won't know this data, so the server will see the request as matching the session and perhaps associating with the logged in user, but then reject it because it's missing this extra parameter). So I was wondering what the advantage of that is over just having the RPC send the userid+password each time, since it has the added advantage of allowing the RPC to re-login the user to handle the request, perhaps allowing the server to have very short session timeouts and have less session state related to a logged in user, etc. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Change timezone dynamically, detecting US daylight saving change from Japan
I don't have a lot of experience with all of this yet, but the Date object should care nothing abut timezones. Presumably it should be GMT/UTC/Zulu and then only convert the data for display based on the user's locale. So if you have a valid Date, it should correctly show for each timezone that asks to see the date/time and handle DST correctly. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Can anyone here let me know how to deploy GWT application (gwt 1.7) in tomcat or resin or any external server
Just remember to do the Google-GWT Compile step to create all of the files in the war/module_name folder that's auto-rebuilt for each compile. Those are the ones that are needed when not in hosted/dev mode. And if you're not creating a new war file each time, you may want to consider removing the war/module_name folder in Tomcat before you copy over the latest build so that obsolete code (all files have hashes for names, so you won't ever overlay a file that has changed since the last compile) doesn't build up over time. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: need to execute commands on windows machine from remote server
I suspect you'll need a plug-in of some sort as what you suggest would scare the heck out of most people who use a browser, that your server could somehow launch a program on my computer and then monitor it. For the browser, the code is mostly limited to javascript or to a plug-in since it would be odd to have any such capability be present otherwise (it would be a huge security hole).

Re: GWT Navigation
You should be able to navigate by setting a new URL on Window.Location.replace(newURL). This should cause the browser to load the age at newURL (what in JSP might be thought of as a sendRedirect, but without having to talk to the server to get it).
