Re: Wicket with GWT
Also, can you share what you get from Wicket that you don't get from GWT? That would be useful for those who venture on this list considering GWT versus Wicket.

Re: Wicket with GWT
If ExtJS essentially gives you what you want in the way of widgets, why not look into integration of ExtJS and Wicket? In the near future, we will be migrating our applications that use ExtJS to Wicket. There has already been some work done in this area. See the following links.

Sounds like an idea I also had before: using GWT to create rich JavaScript components embeddable in any kind of HTML page (be it static, Wicket generated or whatever). Not really a Wicket question, but still. One can think of using GWT to produce highly optimized JavaScript which exports some API to plain JavaScript you write -- gwt-exporter http://code.google.com/p/gwt-exporter/ might be useful to do this. Maybe it is possible to create standard GWT "application" consisting only of your library and a few lines of code to actually export the API (which should prevent GWT compiler from optimizing your library out :-) ). Not tested that, though. Hope that helps. LT
RE: Wicket with GWT
Hi Cemal, I have following use cases in my mind: I want to use Wicket for all the server side goodies like Session, web flow etc. At the same time, I want to embed certain GWT or GWT-Ext widgets in the Wicket pages because they are really cool and would take a considerable effort for any developer to implement them in javascript. I don't use or want to use RPC. We make use of our custom data feeds. If the above combination can work then we can have a traditional multi-page web application with each page having great looking widgets and animations. What I want to achieve can also be achieved if I don't use Wicket. Wicket usage is desired for the server side goodies that it can provide to individual page.

Re: Wicket with GWT
By integration I meant that if I can make use of the server side features of the Wicket & integrate the widgets of GWT just like someone would integrate YUI with Wicket pages. Both technologies are great. Just thinking of a possible marriage for a faster, better app. Any issues seen in this? By the way I know wicket only from the surface as of now.

Re: Wicket with GWT
Personally i dont see an integration at all between GWT an Wicket. Both are ui techs that do things completely different. Give us an example how you see flow (setResponsePage()) in wicket and what GWT then should do On 11/13/08, nitingupta183 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi All, > > I am working on a web application which makes use of GWT.
