Vaadin 7.2.0 and Touchkit

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8

I’m trying to upgrade my app (which includes a desktop and mobile app in the same Eclipse project) to the newly released Vaadin 7.2.0. Widgetset compilation fails (as before…I’ve also tried the 7.2.0 prereleases) with the following:
[ERROR]

I’ve seen a few references to this incompatibiity when googling, but I would have thought that they would have been resolved before a final release. Anybody have thoughts/suggestions?

Hi Mike,

This was a known issue related to the new pointer events module in Vaadin 7.2. I just closed
the TouchKit ticket
 on it today, so the fix should be included in the next release.

And since you’re going to ask anyway, we’ll try to get the next alpha out on monday. A beta release will follow in approximately two weeks.

Thanks for the heads-up, Juho.

I can confirm that the 4.0.0.alpha3 release fixes the compile problem. Thanks Juho!
