Re: extending uiBinder - give support to 3rd party GUI JavaScript toolkits

Touch4j (http://www.emitrom.com/touch4j) does support UI Binder  but we also extend from GWT Widget though. We wrap Sencha Touch but  the widgets are GWT compatible. I dont know if it s possible to support UI Binder without extending from Widget.

Thomas ? :)

Hi all. I have ported a GUI JavaScript library to GWT - http://code.google.com/p/yuigwt/ . I would like yuigwt users be able to use YUI widgets in uibinder.

YUI (yuigwt) defines its own Widget infrastructure and class hierarchy, event handling, etc and it not depends on GWT widgets and GWT DOM.  It also has some rudimentary support for displaying YUI widgets inside GWT Widgets and viceversa, and the same for com.google.gwt.dom.client.*

As I understand from javadocs, all my custom UIBinder classes must inherit from com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.UIObject. But it seems it do not support events, so I guess this mean uiBinder is dependent on GWT Widgets.

I have found no documentation or forum post dedicated explicitly to UIBinder and 3rd party javascript toolkits interoperability.  Also I have found some projects aimed to do this like http://code.google.com/p/gwt-customuibinder/, but I'm not sure to use them.

So my questions are, for defining UIBinder classes to support YUI Widgets,

1) is there are a way of support uibinder Events without working with GWT Widgets API?

2) Do I need to base my uibinder on GWT Widget ? An I obligated to work with my rudimentary GWT widget - YUI widget intoroperability ?

3) any one have any expertice in this field (give 3rd party JavaScript toolkits ported to GWT uiBinder support ? )

Thanks in advance.
