GWT client-side support #208

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Requested feature enhancement. I realize introspection is unavailable in a 
GWT client-side environment. But it'd be so great and simple to use if you 
could use some sort of GWT.create() version.

Is it currently possible to, at least, use the GSON annotations 
(@SerializedName, @Expose, @Since...) in objects that can be sent over the wire 
in a GWT RPC call?

That would be very tough. IMHO writing a GWT generator that does a compatible 
serialization should be possible but deserialization without knowing all 
possible classes to receive would almost be impossible. I have the same need 
and am looking for such solution. However, I think this would need to be 
provided by GWT itself as it needs deeper integration. It should also not be in 
the way for code-splitting.
Watch m-m-m.sf.net (mmm-service) if you want to see if I am lucky finding the 
right solution.

That is fairly easy. All you need to do for that is writing a *.gwt.xml for 
gson.
I could provide this.

Unfortunately it seems that the makes of gson do not care about GWT :(

I have write a library that allows using GWT with Gson, you can download here 
and enjoy it: https://github.com/heroandtn3/bGwtGson
