As promised, the latest version of GWT has been released. You can download it from here.
Here are some of the new features (from the readme):
- FileUpload widget
The much-requested file upload widget - FormPanel widget
Easily submit traditional HTML forms from GWT apps - RPC optimizations
Client and server performance improvements and a more compact wire format - Automatic Resource Injection
Modules can contain references to external JavaScript and CSS files, causing them to be automatically loaded when the module itself is loaded - Internationalization
Easily localize strings and formatted messages - XML classes
An XML library based on the W3C DOM - JSON classes
JSON has moved intogwt-user.jar, and it’s much faster than the sample that shipped with 1.0.21 - JUnit enhancements
Unit tests are much, much faster than in 1.0.21, easier to configure, and you can now test asynchronous things like RPCs and timers - Javadoc
Now included for your convenience, with sample code fragments gwt-servlet.jar
Although you should continue to build againstgwt-user.jaras always, you only need to deploygwt-servlet.jarwith your webapps; it contains the subset ofgwt-user.jaryou’ll need to support RPC
