GWT in Practice

While this practical guide for Java developers working with the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) includes some introductory information, it is intended for readers with basic background on GWT and the Java EE environment, and does not offer a complete introduction to all the classes and libraries included with GWT. Early chapters offer a quick introduction to GWT tools and concepts, and later chapters present a series of practical examples laid out in a problem, solution, and discussion format. Special attention is paid to the problem of integrating GWT with other Java EE applications and services. The book concludes with a hands-on sample application pulling all of the information together. Code samples are available from a web site. Readers should have working knowledge of HTML and CSS, and the browser DOM. Some experience with JavaScript or Ajax is also beneficial. The authors are Atlanta-based Java EE developers. The book is distributed in the US and Canada by O'Reilly. Annotation c2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
