Re: [Engine-devel] GWT 2.4.0 and the oVirt Engine
Hi everyone,
there are patches available for basic UI migration steps described in my previous email:
Move to GWT 2.4 : http://gerrit.ovirt.org/5613
Move to GWTP 0.7 : http://gerrit.ovirt.org/5684
Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Dustin,
here are the basic steps for migrating oVirt web applications to GWT 2.4 and GWTP 0.7:
1. update gwt.version property value to 2.4.0 in following POM files:
• frontend/webadmin/modules/ gwt-common /pom.xml
• frontend/webadmin/modules/ gwt-extension /pom.xml
• frontend/webadmin/modules/ userportal-gwtp /pom.xml
• frontend/webadmin/modules/ webadmin /pom.xml
Note: oVirt root POM still defines gwt.version with value 2.2.0 , which is effectively
inherited by frontend and uicompat modules (located at frontend/webadmin/modules ). This
shouldn't be an issue, however, we should consolidate GWT version definition later on.
2. update gwtp.version property value to 0.7 in frontend/webadmin/modules/pom.xml
3. follow GWTP 0.7 migration steps , which will most likely involve UI code changes
For all steps mentioned above, I'm planning to make a patch, since step (3) requires
deeper knowledge of GWTP/WebAdmin code.
In addition, here are the extra steps to finalize the migration (these items are relevant
long-term, can be skipped for now):
4. remove HTML5 drag'n'drop classes (originally copied from GWT 2.4 trunk) by
removing following WebAdmin packages:
• com.google.gwt.dom.client
• com.google.gwt.event.dom.client
5. adjust UI code regarding GWT Editor framework, which is now capable of handling
primitive boolean is/has getter methods

Hey All,
I was looking at doing some work with extending the oVirt Engine GUI but some of the
functionality that I need (such as dynamic creation of tabs) is only supported in GWT
2.4.0. What sort of steps would have to be taken to update the Engine to GWT 2.4.0? Also,
what would be the easiest way of debugging and testing these updates through Eclipse, for
example. Thanks in advance!
