During one of my lastest patches, I disovered there is also Linq in GWT code.
sweet.
GWT client code org.ovirt.engine.ui.uicommonweb.Linq contains far more
stuff than org.ovirt.engine.core.utils.linq.LinqUtils, including entity
comparators and filter/finder methods. Perhaps these should be moved
out of uicommonweb's Linq.
GWT 2.6 supports Java 7. We already have an upgrade patch [1] for this.
[1] http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/32135/
GWT 3 (planned for late 2014 / early 2015) will likely support Java 8.
