Use GWT generator to generate the ginjector

[christiangoudreau]

We require that the users manually add a method to their ginjector whenever they create a new presenter. However it may be possible to automatically generate the ginjector with a GWT generator.

See issue 207 on GoogleCode

Nice job! :)

I just tried to use the ApplicationController. The Ginjector is emitted correctly in the GWT .generated folder but the GinjectorInspector fails to find the class with "The configuration property 'gin.ginjector' is 'com.example.client.gin.ClientInjector' which doesn't identify a type inheriting from 'Ginjector'.".
Any idea why this could be happening? Isn't GWT supposed to have access to previously generated artifacts?

[christiangoudreau]

the gin.ginjector property must be set to ClientGinjector

you don't need any ginjector anymore.

Known issue: Gatekeepers are not included yet and I have to find an elegant
way to include form factors permutations

I have no manual Ginjector. Only the one that is being generated, however the GinjectorInspector still fails when trying to generate a Proxy.

I have already implemented Gatekeepers and fixed the PresenterBundles which don't work atm. I can open a pull request once I can get it running.

[christiangoudreau]

Bizarre, do you have the latest in your maven repo?

ClientGinjector doesn't extends Ginjector into de gen folder? That's really
weird

I build from master. It does extent Ginjector, the code is solid but the class can not be found by the inspector.

[christiangoudreau]

Uhm, I've just sent a pull request on the GWTP-Samples for the basic
sample. This one is working.

I had to clean my .m2/com/gwtplatorm repo when I updated to the last
version, could you verify if that solves the problem?

I got it to work now in a complex setup with 40+ presenters in multiple bundles, also with gatekeepers and @DefaultGatekeeper.

Problem was that the class given in 'gin.ginjector' property has to be named ClientGinjector, mine was called ClientInjector. This should be documented more thoroughly or maybe we can find a way to allow arbitrary a class name.

While we are at it, maybe we can also try to generate the ProviderBundles?

I will prepare a pull request tomorrow for the gatekeeper stuff.

[christiangoudreau]

Cool! Good job! Yes, we could mark it more clearly in the Javadoc. The doc
for this features still has to be done though :D First we have to update
and move all the doc from Google code to Github, then add the new stuff!

So much to do!

A new undocumented feature is that you can now add as a fourth parameters
in the ctor the slot of your presenter, removing the need to override
revealInSlot. There's also an enum for the root: RevealType. Here was the
pull request:
#33

Wow nice job!

[kuhnroyal]

Got around to work on this a little more.
I sent a pull request #77

[ghost]

Sorry to butt in, but where is the gen folder now?

[ghost]

(using trick from here for now : https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/gwt-platform/QnhvN979d6g)

[kuhnroyal]

By default in .generated I think

[christiangoudreau]

the gen folder is where ever you chosen. You have to specify -gen generated if you want it to be in the "generated" folder. I personally always use -gen gen

[ghost]

I think something may have changed in GWTP 0.8+ or GWT 2.5 as I now get my
ClientGinjector generated in a 'gen' folder but I can't figure out where!

When I use -gen gen I get it in my project root

This is all fine for me , but it's certainly less useful for beginners than
the old code that would output the full path to it's partially generated
ginjector

I just checked with the samples, if you don't provide the <gen> parameter to the maven-gwt-plugin it will end up in target/.generated by default. That folder may be hidden depending on your system.
