Google Web Toolkit GWT Java Ajax Programming Google Web Toolkit Google Web Google Web Toolkit Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is an open-source Java software development framework that makes writing AJAX applications like Google Maps and Gmail easy for developers who don’t speak browser quirks as a second language. It concentrates on the serious side of AJAX: creating powerful, productive applications for browser platforms. Google Web Toolkit shows you how to create reliable user inter- faces that enhance the user experience. What you will learn from this book • Set up a GWT development environment in Eclipse • Create, test, debug, and deploy GWT applications • Develop custom widgets—examples include a calendar and a weather forecast widget From Technologies to Solutions • Internationalize your GWT applications • Create complex interfaces using grids, moveable elements, and more • Integrate GWT with Rico, Moo.fx, and Script.aculo.us to create even more attractive UIs using JSNI Prabhakar Chaganti Who this book is written for Google Web Toolkit The book is aimed at programmers who want to use GWT to create interfaces for their professional web applications. Readers will need experience writing non-trivial applications using Java. Experience with developing web interfaces is useful, but knowledge of JavaScript and DHTML is not required… GWT takes care of that!

This book has gained immense support from various people. The staff at Packt Publishing were very helpful in providing key assistance to me and ably and enthusiastically led me through the various phases of this project. I would like to thank the technical reviewers for their comments, which have helped make this a much better book. The vibrant community around the GWT mailing list was very helpful whenever I needed clarifications on some of the more arcane corners of GWT. I would like to thank my wife Nitika for her support and constant encouragement while I was writing this book. She effortlessly played the roles of both mom and dad while I was wrestling with GWT! Thanks and love to my two daughters Anika and Anya for putting up with daddy being stuck to his laptop for long periods of time instead of playing with them. About the Reviewers Luca Masini was born in Florence in 1971. He is a senior software engineer and web architect. He has been heavily involved from the first days in the Java world as a consultant for the major Italian banks and firms, developing integration software, and as technical leader in many of the flagship projects. He worked for adoption of Sun's J2EE standard in an envinroment where COBOL was the leading language, and then he shifted his eyes toward open source, in particular IoC containers, ORM tools, and UI frameworks. As such he adopted early products like Spring, Hibernate, and Struts, giving customers a technlogical advantage. During last year he fell in love with GWT (of course !!) and he had to master a new project all done with Oracle's ADF Faces and JDeveloper as Visual IDE. I want to thank my son Jacopo for being my lovely son and my wife for being the best wife a man can dream. Travis S. Schmidt (BS, MBA) is currently employed as an Applications Developer at the University of Iowa Hygienic Laboratory. He has several years of experience in designing and developing web-based clients and recently deployed a system utilizing the Google Web Toolkit. I would like to thank my loving family: Rebecca, Jacqueline, and Alexander, for the their unwavering support.

Earlier, each application had a different client software, with the software serving as the UI. This software had to be installed individually on every client, and needed to be updated every time we made changes to the application. We moved from that to the web era and deploying applications on the Internet, and then Internet enabled us to use the omnipresent web browser for accessing our applications from anywhere.

Apart from different IDEs and Technologies, nowadays Web Frameworks are gaining popularity amongst users since they offer a large range of methods, classes, etc. that allow programmers to create and maintain solid Web systems. This research focuses on two different Web Frameworks: Ruby on Rails and Google Web Toolkit and within this document we will examine some of the most important differences between them during a Web development.
