Somebody needed to ask: when will GWT Designer support GWT v2.0 ?

Somebody needed to ask: when will GWT Designer support GWT v2.0 ?

We have been working on it based on the release candidates that Google put out, so hopefully we will have it working within a couple of weeks.

Hi,

Do you have a more specific date ? Will you support Declarative UI with UiBinder ?

Do you have a more specific date ?

Support for the GWT 2.0 Java API will be rolled out over the next couple of weeks. It will initially be released in the latest build stream - first for Windows and then for Linux and OSX.

Will you support Declarative UI with UiBinder ?

We have no short term plans to support the GWT 2.0 UiBinder as that is an XML-based API. GWT Designer is a Java GUI tool. It is not an XML/HTML tool. We will likely add support for XML at some point in the future, but that will require several months of additional work.

Do you have an estimated date for "Support for the GWT 2.0 Java API will be rolled out over the next couple of weeks" (Mac OS X Platform).

For OSX this is unknown as we ran into a show stopper bug in the WebKit that is shipped with OSX...

We are currently investigating an alternative implementation which may or may not work out.

Note that Windows support for GWT 2.0 is in beta now and works quite well.
