GWT and AppEngine support? Examples requested #289

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
This first question is if it is possible to use this library for a GWT based 
application that is running on App Engine servers?

If it is possible to do that, are there any examples or sample code for some 
basic stuff to help get started?

Thanks.

Did you ever get any response. I'm tearing my hairs out trying to accomplish 
this.

I have not heard anything yet.

It seems like this library could work. There are other less active libraries 
for gwt
and facebook, but they are all basic wrappers around the javascript API. 

I was hoping that I could use this library with GWT-RPC|GQuery to call the 
facebook
REST service directly from the App Engine URLfetch, and then have GWT
optimize/compile the necessary javascript for the client, rather than having to 
use a
hard-coded wrapper.

I have not had any luck getting this to work so far, but based on the activity 
and
maintenance of this library, it does seem best suited versus the other 
gwt+facebook
libraries out there.

I just noticed a comment on another thread, that the client REST libraries are 
not
serializable, so I don't know if this library is capable of working in a
GWT+AppEngine configuration at all.

yes i'm getting more and more discouraged at the lack of explanations or help 
out 
there. you may be interested in checking this out. cant get it to work myself 
but the 
example looks promising. wish there existed a guide like that on this google 
group.
