Who did not happen in a Swing skrobnąć something and / or Delphi using a graphic designer, probably the majority of programmers. Yes, the code that may be incurred through such a tool, not a top-flight, but at least it creates a graphical user interface is simply fast, even without being an expert in a given library, we focus only on supporting the individual events (eg onClick, etc). Well, yes but so what, as today, everyone (well, maybe almost everyone) it is expected that the application will be available through a web browser, applets, and of course drop out because you have to install Java, etc.
remember a story that a friend of mine told me about the company in which developers several years ago created an application in Visual Basic, and now they do it in JSP. I asked if they are happy, and he replied that he did not end because they can not understand why, something created by one day it takes them three days now ... This short story smacks of nostalgia for their roots, a WYSIWYG designer environments in which user interface wyklikujemy and oprogramowujemy only events. Is that the MVC had waited for the developers of the story ... you see them.
They waited for GWT Designer tool that allows you to program in such a way as if they had done in the Swing, the difference is only one click is the result of our web interface.
GWT Designer is a GUI wizard, which also supports GWT. It has both the ability to create a visual interface (WYSIWYG) and a set of wizards that generate Java code for us. To create the same interface, users do not need to write even one line of code, only to program the event. Although if we feel like the course, such a code, we ourselves zedytować, then switch back to visual mode. Quite a fantastic way internationalization is supported - without compiling after selecting from the drop down language we can control how your interface will look like in different locations.
With WYSIWYG, you can:
- add controls, drag & drop technique,
- add support for the event by clicking the control,
- change control properties by using the Property Editor palette,
- change and execute the generated code refactoring, the effects are immediately evident in the visual editor,
- tools copes well with the code that was written by hand, can analyze it and present a visual tool,
- and most importantly, he GWT Designer is nothing but a plugin for Eclipse,
- its biggest drawback is that it is not free.
you soon learn its capabilities through the demo videos are available at: http://www.instantiations.com/gwtdesigner/demos.html
