GWT 2.0 and Speed Tracer (Campfire One)

Google Web Toolkit

via Google Web Toolkit Blog

Earlier tonight, we wrapped up a very exciting Campfire One at which we announced that GWT 2.0 is now officially available. In addition to major improvements in the GWT SDK and the Google Plugin for Eclipse, GWT 2.0 includes a brand new performance analysis tool for Chrome called Speed Tracer.

Faster development

  • Declarative UI with UIBinder
  • Google plugin for Eclipse
  • Multi-browser debugging

Faster Apps

  • Compiler optimizations
  • Code splitting
  • Speed Tracer

We hinted at it a few weeks ago, and now it’s available: Speed Tracer is a powerful new performance analysis tool for Chrome that gives you unprecedented insight into the inner workings of any web application — not just those created with GWT. Want to know why your web app feels sluggish? Speed Tracer can help you find the answer.

This video provides an overview of new features in Google Web Toolkit (GWT) 2.0, a tool which enables developers to produce highly optimized, browser-specific JavaScript for their apps. Bruce Johnson, Joel Webber, Andrew Bowers, and Adam Schuck walk you through the newest tools and features in GWT 2.0 such as uiBinder, code splitting, speed tracer, and more.

UPDATE via Anrdroid Developer’s Blog

Posted by Dan Morrill, Developer Advocate on 30 March 2009 at 4:00 PM

For no particular reason other than to celebrate this particular Monday, I wanted to update developers on two Android-related news items.

If you’re a developer who will be in the San Francisco Bay Area at the end of May, I hope you’ll join us at the 2009 Google I/O developer conference. You might have already seen the sessions we had listed for Android, but today I’m quite pleased to let you know that we’ve added a few more Android-related sessions. You can find the full list plus abstracts on the Google I/O site, but here are the titles:

  • Turbo-Charge Your UI: How to Make Your Android UI Fast and Efficient
  • Pixel-Perfect Code: How to Marry Interaction and Visual Design the Android Way
  • Supporting Multiple Devices with One Binary
  • Debugging Arts of the Ninja Masters
  • Coding for Life—Battery Life, That Is
  • Writing Real-Time Games for Android
  • Android Lightning Talks

These sessions don’t even include the “fireside chat” with the Core Technical Team that we have planned. We’re working on still more sessions too; keep an ear to the ground on this blog and the Google I/O site for the latest info. I’m pretty excited about how the Android sessions for Google I/O are coming together. I think it’s going to be a great event, and I hope to meet many of you there.

 

Early Bird Price (until 5/1) $300 USD
List Price (starting 5/2) $400 USD
Academia (Professor, Student, Faculty) $50 USD
For two days in May, thousands of web developers will come together to learn how to develop web applications with Google and open technologies. Learn from product experts about Android, App Engine, Chrome, Google Web Toolkit, AJAX APIs and more. Engage with a community of excited developers just like you.

Google Web Toolkit Blog: Google Plugin for Eclipse™ — Peanut Butter to Eclipse's Chocolate

Google Web Toolkit Blog: Google Plugin for Eclipse™ — Peanut Butter to Eclipse’s Chocolate

.

Eclipse™ is a delicious Java™ IDE. However, developers using it to create Google Web Toolkit (and now Google App Engine for Java) web applications have found themselves wanting better integration.
That’s why we are very happy to announce the first release of the Google Plugin for Eclipse. Not only does the plugin make it easier to work with App Engine for Java and GWT; it also makes projects using both easier. A few key features:
New Web Application Wizard Quickly create web applications that use GWT and/or App Engine. Your new application is fully configured and ready to go.
Run/Debug Web Application With a single click, you can run or debug your web application locally. No more command-line headaches!
Google App Engine for Java Deploying your application to the cloud is easy with the deploy wizard… As-you-type validation ensures that your code is compatible with App Engine.
Google Web Toolkit We’ve enhanced Eclipse’s Java environment to integrate seamlessly with GWT:
  • Recognition of inline JavaScript (JSNI): syntax highlighting, auto-indenting, Java Search and Refactoring integration
  • GWT compiler shortcuts and configuration UI
  • Wizards to create entry points, modules and HTML pages

Google Web Toolkit Blog: Introducing GWT 1.6 and friends

via Google Web Toolkit Blog: Introducing GWT 1.6 and friends

 

Starting today, there is a simpler way to use the JavaTM language to develop and deploy world-scalable web applications. We are very happy to announce today: What does this mean for you? It is easier than ever to create sophisticated web applications entirely in the Java language with Google Web Toolkit while working productively in Eclipse. And the moment you’re finished, with only a few button clicks you can upload and publish your application to the world on App Engine. In GWT 1.6, we’ve tried to make common tasks simpler while making it possible to do even more advanced things. If you’re brand new to GWT, some of this is going to sound like gibberish, so you’ll also want to take a look at the Product Overview as a gentler introduction.

Google Web Toolkit 1.6 (Release Candidate) - developer's guide and download page

UPDATE: GWT 1.6.3 (RC2) now avaliable for download

Google Web Toolkit 1.6 RC2 Now Available

Posted by Scott Blum - Monday, March 30, 2009 at 7:00:00 PM

The Google Web Toolkit engineering team is happy to announce that the second Google Web Toolkit 1.6 Release Candidate is now available from the project download page for you to try out. (The first GWT 1.6 Release Candidate was announced a couple of weeks ago on the the GWT Developer Forum.)

 

Developer’s Guide

  • Please consider this a draft until GWT 1.6 is officially released

  • Google Web Toolkit (GWT) makes it easier to write high-performance AJAX applications. You write your front end in the Java programming language and GWT compiles your source into highly optimized JavaScript.

Upgrading to GWT 1.6

There are four tasks involved when upgrading a GWT 1.5 project to a GWT 1.6 project:

  • Download the new JAR files and update your launch configurations.

  • GWTShell has been replaced by HostedMode, so you will need to update your Eclipse project settings accordingly.

  • GWT now uses a war directory for most public resource and server configuration files. The war directory is a standard directory recognized by many web servers, including GWT hosted mode.

  • Event listeners have been replaced by event handlers.
