Re: Development mode cross site RPC requests
Hmmm, I glanced over that thinking it wouldn't allow me to do the convenient browser-refresh to test my client-side code... I should really look into it further.

Re: Development mode cross site RPC requests
My thinking exactly. Definitely worth investigating. Thanks for your suggestions! - Lars -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Development mode cross site RPC requests
Y'know I thought about that... In fact I thought about even using such a setup in prod mode. That way i could take advantage of the optimized across-the-wire serialized data transfers built in to GWT and save the client from downloading all the XML parsing logic. That would be done in this server side component. If I ever have time I'd like to explore that to see if there is a performance hit for this extra step or if the optimized transfers would make it a overall benefit.

Development mode cross site RPC requests
Anyone have a suggestion? Writing a GWT based front end that interacts with a C++ backend system. I do not have direct access to the backend systems but interact with it by making ajax XML requests (no JSON). Now, when I run in development mode cross-domain violations prevent me from making these XML requests from http://127.0.0.1: to http://backend.system.com/blah.cgi My ugly solution is to make a bunch of static .xml files in my war directory representing each of the possible request returns and using GWT.isProdMode() to request those files if false or use the real data server if true. Obviously not ideal. Any better solutions? (BTW, i've searched the groups and didn't find any similar situations... which is surprising to me!) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Development mode cross site RPC requests
You could create a server side component for your GWT app, and delegate fetching the XML data to that. -Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Development mode cross site RPC requests
I would think that the servlet would increase the performance of the application by a bit. XML parsing in JS can't be fun, or fast, for that matter. This assumes the latency between wherever you would run your application server and the target C++ backend isn't too high, though. Otherwise you are making a big triangle of a route, as opposed to simply back and forth. Probably still worth it, since then you can leverage awesome java XML parsing libraries. You may see some performance penalty for switching servers, I suppose. I seem to recall that Tomcat wasn't quite as zippy as Apache. -Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.
