Re: Best serverside architecture(framework/stack) to use with GWT for large application...please show me the light
hibernate with jpa beans. run onto of a restful java servlet to serve up your DAL. if your not good with dep inj design use GIN and Guice for instantiating your widgets and composites. also if your new to gwt use the ui binder. advanced create a viewport and screen manager to inject your classes. and oracle for db since it works nicely with run native behind the scenes of your plsql views that u create in your db. also for quick and dirty apps use springroo to architect and develop your back end.

I love GRAILS and GWT development.

Re: Best serverside architecture(framework/stack) to use with GWT for large application...please show me the light
Hi Seth, I personally am not a fan of Spring. I'm generally not a fan of anything that says, First, create a bunch of XML files (GWT excepted :) ). That's why I gravitated to Guice for all my DI needs. That said, Guice and Spring aren't quite the same thing, and you could leverage both of them. However, it is probably unnecessary to do both Guice and Spring in a GWT app. You can do anything with one DI framework that you can do with the other, and if you are leaning to Spring, you make a fine choice and you can ignore the rest of my post. At my workplace, the way we do GWT projects is we create a WebXml.java in the server package that implements GuiceServletContextListener and point the web.xml to that class. The WebXml contains servlet mapping modules, db connection modules, and other Guice modules as needed. On the client side, we generally use MVP structure with GIN. The MVP structure is a lifesaver for large projects in my mind. Our more recent projects have used the Activity and Places framework described on GWT's website with the main exception that the ClientFactory object is unnecessary since GIN provides the various resources instead of ClientFactory. At my work we've got two projects that clock in around 34k and 46k lines of Java (not including XML or other artifacts) as well as smaller projects and they use the methodology I described.

Re: Best serverside architecture(framework/stack) to use with GWT for large application...please show me the light
Hi Derek, After do some more research and receiving some more advice from others and another helpful answer on SO I'll be going with Spring (I agree about the XML, but they have introduced/incorporated more annotations since the earlier versions). However what you detailed still makes a lot of sense, and also very helpful, so I won't be ignoring it :). Although Guice and Spring might be over doing it, I think GIN on the client side is still worthwhile and you've pretty much sold me. Also the Activitys and Places. Thanks again for all the insight, much appreciated. -Seth On Tuesday, August 28, 2012 4:12:43 PM UTC+2, Derek wrote: Hi Seth, I personally am not a fan of Spring.
