Hi guys, I'm sorry I'm not up-to-date on recent GWT development efforts, but does the current version of the GWT-RPC serialization scheme still use fully qualified class names in the payload string? (e.g. com.example.foo.Foo in the method signature part of the payload, and then again as com.example.foo.Foo/12345 in the argument part of the payload.
If so, then I bet payload sizes can be reduced dramatically by using a lookup table for class names. I'd be willing to work on a patch of this. Once again, I apologize if this has already been addressed (my company still uses GWT 1.5). Thanks, Alex -- http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors
