Google Web Toolkit (GWT)

I am trying to understand the benefits GWT. Seems like coding Java Script and DHTML by hand or using the JSP/JSF model (any update triggers page reload) is no longer considered good UI design. I see a lot of buzz around the new Google Toolkit Release 1.5 and see more and more books and sites coming out discussing advantages of GWT.
Here is one of many artciles:
http://alan.blog-city.com/gwt_power.htm
I wonder if anyone used GWT and can comment on this technology. Surprisingly, I see very few jobs on Dice.com that mention GWT. But is it something that is going to become very important in the next few months/years as this framework gets better?
To me, the idea of building sophisticated JavaScript interfaces with Java seems very exciting.

which technologies you choose will depend on your requirements
in general, i'd expect that using GWT is better than rolling your own solution
for example, i'd much rather use a toolkit (such as Echo3) than code html, javascript, ajax, xml, etc. when i could be using only 1 API
I will say I hear good things about JSF

Client-side caching of Javascript (for Google Web Toolkit *.cache.* files

Hi all,
I'm trying out the use of Google Web Toolkit (GWT) for AJAX code development, leveraging RPC calling back-end Web Services for a document browser prototype. When the JavaScript code is generated by GWT, it has the ability to automatically distinguish between cacheable and non-cacheable content via file extensions (.cache. and .nocache.).
Now when running in a Tomcat environment with appropriate caching settings; the application runs extremely fast even on really poor latency sites (>500ms round trip); however on a NetWeaver stack, I can't find any information on how to set an attribute on .cache. files to set an expiry of 1 year.
Anyone know how to do this on a NetWeaver J2EE stack?
Thanks,
Matt
PS. For reference, GWT is a very cool open source project worth watching in the Enterprise space for targeted high-usability, high performance apps. Just the image bundles concept themselves are an awesome approach to minimizing impact of small images on performance.

Hi again,
I thought I should post the solution I came up with in case people search on GWT in the future. In terms of caching, the Portal does a good job of making nearly everything that GWT produces to be cached at the client; and for the life of me, I couldn't get nocache files not cached at the client side.
So thanks to my friendly local SAP experts in the portal space; I discovered there's not much you can do to get this working except try use standard browser tags like the following to prevent caching on the browser:
Note - Can't seem to save this post in SDN with Meta tags that I'm trying to display so check out http://www.willmaster.com/library/tutorials/preventing_content_cache.php for more info...
Unfortunately, the way that GWT creates the nocache files, it is not possible to modify the .js files to do this so I needed an alternative approach.
Then I thought, well, the html file that includes the JS file is cached, but it's not very big, so how about I just write a script to modify the html file when I deploy to production to point to the nocache file with a date suffix.
Let me explain in more detail:
1. The original html file that includes the nocache.js file gets modified to point to nocache.<date>.js.
2. The original nocache.js file gets changed to nocache.<date>.js
3. Now produce an external bat file to do this automatically for you before deployment which DevStudio can call as part of an Ant script or similar.
That's it. So when you are developing, you can manually delete your cache, but just before you go to production, you do this conversion, and you will never have an issue with clients having the wrong version of javascript files.
Note - GWT takes care of caching of most of the files by using a GUID equivalenet each time you compile, so it's just a couple of files that really need to not be cached.
Anyway, I'm not explaining this solution very well, but drop us a line if you need to understand this approach further.
And lastly, my feedback about GWT - It Rocks! Everyone loves the result, it's easy to build and maintain, it offers a great user experience, and it's fast. Not a replacement for transactional apps; but for the occasional user - go for it.

Where is "Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox?"

I can not find this plug in for the version of Firefox I have 3.6.8, even though it already runs with it?
I can not find Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox for Firefox 3.6.8 even though I already have Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox running on a version of Firefox 3.6.8 on other computers.
# There is no regular information that tells you how to get this plugin as there is with other plugins.
# When GWT Devmode loads the Firefox brower, it says "missing plugin." you click to install, and it can't find it.
# I know that I have previously been able to install Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox version 1.0.7511 installed on Firefox 3.6.8 on another machine. But I'm migrating to this one.
(Edited to correct the formatting to stop the post scrolling to the right - TonyE)

Hi richkatz,
I'm on FF3.6.2 and today, I encounter the same problem.
I got the solution by opening the download page in another tab. Then the firefox message switched from "Look for Plugin" to "Autorise FF to install the plugin".
Here is the URL of my new tab, hoping that it works for FF3.6.8 : https://dl-ssl.google.com/gwt/plugins/firefox/gwt-dev-plugin.xpi
Seeya! ;)

Firefox 6 doesn't support Google Web Toolkit add-on so has become useless to me.

Thanks for forcing an upgrade. You need to understand that you will turn people OFF if you force them to upgrade to a platform that is not ready for their full requirements! I can no longer be a Firefox user. Can I go back to my previous version? How?

Looks like the problem is with Google having not released an update yet. See the following link and links within: https://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit/browse_thread/thread/48d34a9fb54af7e6/ddb748430950f08a
Here is a link within that article re: a patch for Firefox 6: https://gwt-code-reviews.appspot.com/1523805/

CFC's for GWT (Google Web Toolkit)

Hi All,
Is there any built in CFC's (or) library available to utilse
the GWT Framework?
Regards,
Dav R

GWT's own documentation has a nice tutorial which starts from how to install and goes from there. There are also some FAQs and the API documentation which you may want to come back to. The link itself is a good example of GWT's use.
[roughian.com|http://examples.roughian.com/#Home] offer some on-line code snippets and a free tutorial you can sign up for. I haven't looked at this tutorial - but I have seen useful stuff posted in various places by its author.
The GWT stuff from the recent Google IO conference are at youtube, and there are links to them at [gwtsite.com|http://www.gwtsite.com/]. They include a description of deferred binding, monolithic compilation and how DOM programming and the use of Java types which "overlay" JavaScript objects. I watched these recently and was intrigued.
There's a Google Groups group (not surprisingly). And that would be the best place for GWT information, I imagine.

Options for supporting web toolkit applications

The various changes which have occurred between 10 and 11g are very detrimental to any users developing or supporting applications built with the original web toolkit (not APEX).
In 10g, you could download the database and companion CD and end up with a database and http server with mod_plsql running in no time flat.
In 11g, the database install is just as easy, but the http server install requires "Oracle Fusion Middleware Web Tier" which weighs in at a scary 1Gb+ (for a webserver) and assumes you are wanting to run lots of instances across an "enterprise grid". Even finding the error logs for when it doesn't work is hard. I spent a happy 4 hours trying to install it (following the instructions) without success.
So, you think, what are the alternatives.....
1. You could use the EPG, but the majority of advice is that this isn't suitable for production deployments
2. You could use the APEX listener, but that doesn't support some of the features: flexible parameters, basic auth, etc
There are a number of things Oracle could do to rectify this
1. Open source mod_plsql. If they are not going to develop it further then let someone else do it for them
2. Maintain backwards compatibility with mod_plsql in the APEX listener - not every application is APEX
Hopefully someone from the APEX listener team can say "yes, we'll be making the apex listener compatible with all mod_plsql features in the next release". Fingers crossed...
This was expressed more eloquently by John Flack here
http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/jjflash-oracle-journal/application-express-listener-an-open-letter-35464
Edited by: user486189 on 07-Aug-2010 04:52

Thanks for the favorable mention of my blog - I updated that entry with a later one based on the Release Candidate version of the Apex Listener. I haven't given the production version a really good try yet, but what I've seen is pretty close to what I saw in the early adopter versions, except that the documentation is much better - bravo.
You've named two alternatives to mod_plsql. Here are a few more:
mod_owa: This is similar to mod_plsql, but it works under the generic version of Apache web server, rather than Oracle's customized version, Oracle HTTP Server. It is configured a little differently from mod_plsql and has some variations in the way it supports some of the more advanced features of the PL/SQL Web Toolkit, like flexible parameters. Joe Lennon wrote a blog entry about mod_owa here: http://www.joelennon.ie/2008/12/09/install-apache-mod-owa/.
The base website for mod_owa is: http://oss.oracle.com/projects/mod_owa/dist/documentation/modowa.htm
Thoth Gateway: If you have a Microsoft IIS web server, you might try the Thoth Gateway. Find it here: http://code.google.com/p/thoth-gateway/
DBPrism: This is another JEE based application that I know that some are using. DBPrism was not primarily intended as a mod_plsql replacement, but does do that too. Find it at: http://www.dbprism.com.ar/en/index.html
Please be aware, I haven't tried these (except a brief trial of an earlier version of mod_owa) so I can't vouch for them.

Keyboard not working in Google Web Designer

I just installed google web designer from AUR. ( https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/google-webdesigner/ )
And I have the weirdest problem, the keyboard seems to stop working in the program somehow the keyboard does work after launch, but it seems to stop working after I use the mouse or something similar.
As an example, after launch I can press Ctrl+N for "new file" and then press tab until I get to the name field, and type all I want.
I can repeat this, press Ctrl+N and then click the name field, and the keyboard stops working. I can then close the window and press Ctrl+N again, but this time the window won't open (i.e. keyboard input is completely dead to the program). Below is all the terminal output I get when I launch the program, by the looks of it nothing seems suspicious in relation to this issue.

Does this happen to anybody else? Anyone got a clue what might be up?
My Desktop environment is a pretty basic LXDE setup, and my keyboard is Razer Blackwidow, Mouse is a basic 5 button logitech mouse, I've never had any problems whatsoever with it.I am running on the evdev input driver (latest version of libinput crashes xorg if this keyboard is present and I try to use it) I have confirmed however that this issue is not specific to my keyboard (I tried another generic keyboard, it gave the same results)

Hello, I am maintaner of the AUR package, I tried right now, and I dont have any described problems you have. And honestly I have no idea how to help you.
I have tested GWD under Xfce4.12 and Openbox, and no issues, like this.
You may try here https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/gwdbeta to get to the bottom of it, if no luck here.

How to print a page written in pl/sql web toolkit

Dear members,
I have a time sheet page created using pl/sql web toolkit. I want to submit this page to the printer.
Please let me know, if there are any examples or documents on this one.
Thanks
Murugan

I try to show/hide a div depending on the occurence of errors. I resolved this problem by doing this in javascript.
function showEdu(){
$("#edu").animate({ height: 'show', opacity: 'show' }, 'slow');
$s('P6_EDU_SHOWN','Y');
function hideEdu(){
$("#edu").animate({ height: 'hide', opacity: 'hide' }, 'slow');
$s('P6_EDU_SHOWN','N');
function checkEduError(){
if($("span").hasClass("errTxt") == true)
{showEdu();}
else
if($v('P6_EDU_SHOWN') == 'Y')
{showEdu();}
else
{hideEdu();}

R12 plsql web toolkit disabled - what are the alternatives?

We have developed a fair amount of add-on applications in our e-business suite using the plsql web toolkit (htp). This functionality has been disbaled in R12.
My question to Oracle, "What is the work around for using applications we developed in 11i that were developed using the plsql web toolkit?
Oracel response:
R12 does not support WWK fucntions.
You will need to recreate these as custom JSP pages.
The pl/sql toolkit in the Apache Server is disabled in R12 as a security precaution.
1. What are other people doing who have encountered this issue?
2. Is it possible to enable the pl/sql toolkit in the apache server? If for nothing else than to buy time until these apps are re-written as jsp apps.
3. Is anyone doing something other than jsp? i.e. SSWA Servlet Function?
Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Steven, this is a re-post of a question I asked in your article
http://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan/2006/11/mod_plsql_not_supported_in_ebu.html
(great stuff btw)
Hoping others may see this and have some input as well. So.....
As means to buy some time while we learn how to redevelop our existing extensions in the R12 OA Framework as jsp, we are exploring using mod_plsql on a separate Oracle Application Server 10g installation to extend the life of our applications written using the pl/sql web toolkit.
So here is my question: How do you integrate applications using this seperate mod_plsql into R12's security since it does not allow you to register a function type WWK (SSWA plsql function)? i.e registering as an EBS function then adding to a menu and so on.
Do you still register the function as a WWK (SSWA plsql function) and enter a fully qualified url to the mod_plsql pkg.proc in the Web HTML tab?
Thanks for any comments.

Migrate/Import/[etc.] PL/SQL Web-Toolkit Application to APEX

Hello all,
I've only recently learned about APEX and have dabbled with it for a little while, and I'm quite impressed with how amazingly quick it is to develop applications with it.
A few co-workers and myself are trying to convince "The Management" that we should pursue using APEX to develop our Enterprise Applications. Currently we write our web apps using the PL/SQL WebToolkit, accessing our applications at URL's like: http://host/dad/[package.]procedure .
Recently (within the past month) there was a convention in the Southern California region where I believe some people from TUSC presented on APEX. As I understand it, they said it was possible to migrate existing applications (written in packages and procedures) to APEX. I'm also told that it is possible to view the PL/SQL that is rendered by APEX to display the application.
We've practically sold our Director, however he has a few outstanding issues he's asked me to research, as he feels his boss would be most concerned with:
* How much effort will it take to migrate/import/etc the PL/SQL WebToolkit Application to APEX
* Should the need arise, how much effort would it take to move from APEX back to PL/SQL WebToolkit
I've tried researching these topics over the past few days and I haven't really come up with much. I realize that you can call PL/SQL packages/procedures/etc from within a region, but as I read on a thread in these forums ( How to jump from mod_plsql to APEX! ), you still won't be able to take advantage of the Items, Computations, Processes, etc. Is there, in fact, a way of importing a PL/SQL-developed Web Application into APEX to take advantage of all its tools? I would imagine it would be quite a feat to be able to create the items for the form fields, maintain the layout and such, but I need to provide my Director with as much information on these topics as possible.
Many of us developers are really excited at the prospect of developing with this tool; it would be a shame to lose the opportunity over not being able to provide any information on the topics above.
Thanks in advance for your assistance,
-Luis

Hi Luis,
I had a client a couple of years back who had an existing PL/SQL Web Toolkit application who used the htp.p etc calls to generate the HTML (and in some cases CSS) for their site. They were interested in using Application Express and asked me to design a new administration module for their site (which I did). The development went extremely smoothly so they then asked about re-writing their existing site in APEX (since maintaining the old site was not a straight-forward task).
Fortunately for me, the original designer had the foresight to put lots of the application logic into packages (which I could reuse), but I quickly (about 2 or 3 days from memory) created a custom theme and templates in APEX which gave the same look and feel as the existing site.
Personally, I think if you tried to re-use the existing htp.p calls (by using PL/SQL regions etc), then you would be missing out on some of the major advantages of using APEX (such as the ability to easily change the look and feel of your application).
I always think that migrating to a new tool/platform etc is a great opportunity to re-examine your existing code to perhaps see if you can do things differently (speed up those queries, perhaps make the navigation more logical etc).
So, yes you can certainly re-use lots of your existing packaged logic, but I would also take the leap and use the features that Application Express provides to make future maintenance of your application easier.
Just my thoughts.
John.

Google web search results "not right" in Firefox

I'm having a problem using Google web search (both toolbar and straight from google.com) in Firefox. When I search for a keyword, lets say a business name, and expect it to bring up the business's website, the results include videos, some blogs, news, etc. Nothing from the business's main website are included in the search results. There are no problems with Google web search in IE or Chrome.
Here's a specific example: Search "Mozilla Firefox" in Google using Firefox there are 31,600,000 results with the top 10 being random websites about Firefox browsers. When I search "Mozilla Firefox" in Google using IE, there are only 130,000,000 (4 times more), with the top results being www.mozilla.org/, and other "main" Mozilla sites.
I've run all the recommended Malware/Antivirus fixes, reinstalled Firefox, updated the few add-ons/plug-ins I have, and made sure that Google search settings are the exact same for all browsers. Nothing is working.
Is anyone else having this issue or have a guess to what may be causing it? I've spent a few hours trying to fix it and at this point am ready to give up on Firefox, which is (was) my go to browser.

hello, google is tracking & personalizing your search history even when you're not signed in - maybe you'll have to opt-out or clear all cookies from google.com & see if the results change...

Google web page not displaying correctly

Since updating to v24.0 of Firefox (desktop) the Google web page does not display correctly.
If I use the IE tab 2 in FF or even IE10, I see the pagwe in it's full 'glory' including the black menu bar across the top were you can select Gmail or Calendar etc etc
However, in FF (without using the IE Tab 2) this menu bar across the top of the page does not display ... and to add insult to injury ... some web links o certain pages don't seem to want to work either !!!!
Anyone know what's gone wrong here as I can't figure it out ?!?!?!
Thanks

Whenever my Google UI changes drastically, I clear all my Google cookies and usually that fixes it. Sometimes I have to do that AND restart Firefox.
If you haven't already tried it... When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
