![]() | Google Developer Day US - Fast, Easy, Beautiful: GWT Fast, Easy, Beautiful: Pick Three -- Building Web User Interfaces in the Java Programming Language with Google Web Toolkit Bruce Johnson, Joel Webber The Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is an open source Java-centric framework for creating AJAX applications. GWT cross-compiles Java source into JavaScript, allowing Java developers to use their existing Java skills and tools to easily create AJAX applications with virtually no learning curve. After a short introduction to GWT, we will dive quickly into a few key topics including high-performance AJAX, remote procedure calls, and integration with existing web applications. |
![]() | Google I/O 2008 - GWT Extreme! GWT Extreme! Ray Cromwell (Timepedia.org) In this session, see Google Web Toolkit used in exotic and creative ways to solve interesting engineering problems, from authoring OpenSocial apps that run as both Web gadgets and native Android applications, to developing Adobe AIR applications using GWT, compiling CSS selectors to Javascript at compile time, running multithreaded code with GWT and Gears workers, or exporting GWT libraries for JavaScript users. Learn the secrets of writing "faster than possible" GWT code, how to use Generators and Linkers in harmony, and make seamless procedure calls from GWT code to other environments like Flash, Gears, or Android. |

![]() | Google I/O 2008 - JavaScript and DOM Programming in GWT Surprisingly Rockin' JavaScript and DOM Programming in GWT Bruce Johnson (Google) You may already know about GWT's nifty JavaScript Native Interface (JSNI), which allows you to define native Java methods with handwritten JavaScript. In GWT 1.5, there's an even more powerful way to program close to the metal. You can now model arbitrary JavaScript types directly as Java classes (specifically, as subclasses of GWT's JavaScriptObject class), yet there is no overhead in size or speed. You can code against any JavaScript object as if it were a regular old Java object. So, what does that buy you? * It's never been easier to integrate with external JS libraries; just define a Java class that models the JS object you want to interact with. Nice Java syntax, no overhead. * Freely use low-level native JS data structures (JS arrays, for example) by exposing them with a Java-friendly API. You can even apply Java generics to JS types! * Superimpose strongly-typed Java classes on JSON objects, giving you IDE code completion, refactoring and compile-time type checking. * GWT uses this new ability to provide a complete cross-browser DOM class hierarchy based on the W3C's Java HTML bindings. Programming straight to the DOM has never been more productive. Come learn about this unusual and powerful new capability that you can use to squeeze every drop of performance and interop out of your GWT projects. |

![]() | Google Developer Day Sydney - Lars Rasmussen Open Source, Google APIs, Google Web Toolkit Presented by Lars Rasmussen Why Google supports and uses open source, why it is good for us, and why you should use it too. Followed by an overview of Google's extensive collection of APIs for use by third party developers including the Google Maps API, the Google AJAX Search API, the Google Gadgets API and much more. This session will then explore the Google Web Toolkit (GWT), a Java-centric framework for creating AJAX applications. GWT cross-compiles Java source into JavaScript, allowing Java developers to use their existing Java skills and tools to easily create AJAX applications with virtually no learning curve. Lars will contrast using the toolkit with his experience 'hand-rolling' the AJAX of Google Maps, and if time allows, demonstrate building a simple application with GWT. Lars Eilstrup Rasmussen is a member of Google's technical staff and a lead engineer of the team that created Google Maps. He currently works out of Google's young but growing Sydney engineering office and is actively working to expand Google's engineering presence in Australia. Lars holds a Ph.D. in theoretical computer science from the University of California at Berkeley, which nominated his thesis on approximate counting for the ACM Doctoral Dissertation Award. In early 2003, Lars co-founded with his brother Jens Eilstrup Rasmussen a mapping-related startup, Where 2 Technologies, which was acquired by Google in October of 2004. |
