Hello Team,

It would be great if you could come up with set of tutorials with respect to developing pure Client Side Widget and integrating the same with Vaadin Backend. Though we have a wiki page it is not that exhaustive.
What I’m looking at is a good lauching pad to start writing a Client side Widget.

Can you please look in to it.

Thanks,
Krishna.

What precautions should be take if we change the existing component code as the new version of vaadin is released. Do you have any plugin or extenstion architecture like it is in Liferay

  1. Push notification from where is the question? If you have @Push annotated ui, you can just modify your uis from any other thread and the change will happen automatically for the client. Similarly if you have enabled “polling” as well. Be sure to change your UIs sychronously. Easiest and safest method is to use UI.access(Runnable) method.
  2. Panels (including splitpanel) have scrollable content by default. Using them is the easiest method, but you can also do “overflow:auto” hacks with CSS.
  3. Couple of tricks: You should only build your widgetset during clean build and ofter version updates. Widgetset building can also be split to separate module in multimodule maven project to avoid non relevant gwt compilations. During extension development you’ll naturally need to do this, but there you can use devmode/superdevmode. Updating to latest Vaadin version will also cut down the compilation time dramatically. GWT has developed a lot on this field lately.
