Use Spring with GWT dispatch

From the GWT dispatch site:

Inspired by Ray Ryan’s Best Practices For Architecting Your GWT App session at Google I/O 2009, “gwt dispatch” is an implementation of the ‘command pattern’ discussed at the beginning of the video.

The project uses Gin in the frontend and Guice in the backend. Guice defines a very nice dependency injection framework, [...]

Non invasive GWT and Spring integration (reloaded)

New project layout

Stop this “my support is better than yours” discussion!

Ok, someone is making money with support.
Ok, someone is not contributing to OSS.
But wait – is offering support not exactly that? Contributing to OSS by doing the dirty work no one wants to do?

That’s why I do not agree entirely with the label “parasites”. It is not easy to offer support, IMHO it is a [...]

SpringSource announces an application plattform

SpringSource recently announced the Spring Aplication Platform, and this announcement is generating a lot of fuss. Google has recently launched the Google App Engine. From an Java enterprise developers point of view it is shamelessly easy to use, deploy, etc. Well, unfortunately it only takes Python apps for now, but it is stated that there [...]

Security Anforderungen 2.0: Gruppen, Rollen, Flexibilität

Was habe ich mich gefreut, als Jira das Sicherheitskonzept um Rollen (Projekt-Rollen) erweitert hat. Statt Rechtekonfigurationen an Benutzergruppen zu binden, hat man jetzt die Möglichkeit Rechte an bestimmte Rollen zu binden. Für jedes Projekt folgt dann die Benutzer/ Rolle Zuweisung: dadurch ergibt sich letztlich, welche Rechte ein Benutzer für ein bestimmtes Projekt haben wird.

[update]
If you are working with GWT 1.6, you probably would like to have a look at this here:

[update]

Obviously I am not the only one looking for a way to integrate my Spring backend into some GWiT application. After searching for a while I didn’t find any suiting solution. There are some interesting approaches (like GWT [...]

Using Acegi to secure a GWT application

I am on the train to Munique on my way to the OOP 2008. Today I spent some time refactoring a GWT application (we are moving to GWT 1.5 built from the svn trunk) and thought I could use the travel time to post about GWT and Acegi.

GWT changes the way we develop internet applications. [...]
