This project is a step-by-step Spring-GWT tutorial. It is inspired from the article written by Alex Tretyakov on 2012-08-30 Spring and GWT tutorial. Part 5 - UiBinder.

The project was created as a "Maven Project" with GWT cli-tool. Then files from hellogwt were added, commented and modified to run with SQLite instead of MySQL.

Steps

These are the steps:

  1. Spring Configuration
  2. Adding GWT
  3. GWT RPC services
  4. MyBatis and SQLite
  5. UIBinder
  6. Using a SplitLayoutPanel
  7. Internationalisation
  8. Hibernate and H2 (keeping MyBatis and SQLite in the configuration)
  9. JUnit tests
  10. GWT unit tests

Next steps:

  1. Use of GXT

Run the application

In command line

  1. Build the project by executing mvn clean install command. Now we have application war-file.
  2. If Tomcat is running, stop/kill it. ~/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.43/bin/shutdown.sh
  3. Go to the tomcat installation folder
  4. Delete the temp and work folders. They only contain temporary files.
  5. Copy the war file target/hellogwt.war to <tomcat>/webapps/ folder.
  6. Start the server ~/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.43/bin/startup.sh.
  7. Go to http://localhost:8080/hellogwt/.

If you have configured $HOME/.m2/settings.xml with a server called Tomcat6:

  1. If Tomcat is not running, start it. ~/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.43/bin/startup.sh
  2. Build and deploy the project by executing mvn tomcat6:deploy command. You can use mvn tomcat6:redeploy if the war was deployed.
  3. Go to http://localhost:8080/hellogwt/.

In Eclipse

You need to install those plug-ins:

  • Eclipse Git Team Provider

Right-click on project and click on Run As > Run on Server.

In NetBeans

You need to install those plugins:

  • GWT4NB
  • JavaEE Base
  • Maven

Click on Run project or type F6.

Development

In Maven

  • mvn compile only compiles Java sources.
  • mvn gwt:compile only compiles GWT module and writes extras.
  • mvn test run JUnit tests.
  • mvn gwt:test run GWT unit tests.

In NetBeans

  1. Define breakpoints if needed.
  2. Click on Debug Project or type Ctrl+F5.
  3. In the project custom menu, click on Run GWT code server.
  4. Visit the url said by the code server to install the bookmarklet.
  • To run JUnit tests, in the project menu, click on Test.
