Hi,

I have a question about openlayers: which openlayers version is supported by gwt-openlayers? the project seems to be still active. however, I was not able to use a higher version of openlayers than 2.x (which was current in 2013).

many thanks for your help

regards, juergen

Hello Jürgen,

GWT-OpenLayers supports OpenLayers 2 which means the last supported version is 2.13.1 which won't be updated anymore. OpenLayers 3 (including all new versions) is a complete rewrite of the library, so a new wrapper is needed. If you want to migrate or start with OpenLayers 3+ you can use a new wrapper https://github.com/TDesjardins/gwt-ol which supports the newest versions of OpenLayers and uses JsInterop interfaces to also be prepared for J2CL in future.

Cheers

Tino
