An Activity interface #457

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.I already did the Activities and Places that come with GWT and I liked it 
except I felt like the Places, and mappers were involving more code and more 
coupling than necessary.
2.I started using GWTP and I liked the way it reduced the size of my code, put 
best practices in my architecture and added features. 
3.I wanted to create a page with the presenter and view combined because the 
page is so simple that a view and a presenter would be overkill. Unfortunately, 
I found that it's very difficult because the Presenter class which I extend 
couples everything! It expects a separate view so the only way to combine them 
is to not extend the Presenter. The problem with that is that I the Presenter 
is responsible for revealing. The only way to still reveal is to do it myself.

Is there a better solution than doing this myself? If not I think that there 
should be a Presenter(or Activity) interface that is able to be displayed but 
is in know way coupled to the concept of Presenters and views. That way it'd be 
easy to fit a page in to this system of page navigation and still organize the 
code inside that page however I want without rewriting code. Activities and 
Places in GWT is already like this.
