Can i disable Ext-GWT support ?

[eguardiola]

Hi,

I have a project with five GWT modules. One of them is using GWT-Ext (has to be migrated...) and the remain is using GXT. The project has both JARs in classpath and GWt Designer is trying to open GWT-Ext support for GXT modules too.

Is there any way i can avoid that ?

Thanks.

The palette is quite simple and builds its categories based on the libraries that you are using (the jars on the classpath). If you want to hide GWT-Ext from the palette, you would need to remove it from your classpath. You might also be able to suppress it via the Palette Manager.

Palette is not the big problem.

What i really want to avoid is having to put following lines in order to avoid GWT Designer to crash when opening a GXT visual class on a module that is not using GWT-Ext at all. It detects the GWT-Ext JAR so it is going to try load GWT-Ext resources.

Code: Select all

<stylesheet src="javascript/ext/resources/css/ext-all.css"/>
<script src="javascript/ext/adapter/ext/ext-base.js"/>
<script src="javascript/ext/ext-all.js"/>
<inherits name='com.gwtext.GwtExt' />   


So i would love not having to use this nasty workaround.

The only way around that at the moment would be to remove GWT-Ext from your project entirely.

Until you refactor to remove GWT-Ext, could you split the project into two projects...one that uses only GWT-Ext and one that only uses GXT?

We will also look for a solution on our end. GWT Designer was never intended to work with more than one of these libraries in a project at the same time.

Thanks Eric. I was searching for a less nasty workaround. Hope will refactor soon!

[Eric Clayberg]

Yes. Refactoring would be the best solution
