Widgets
Widgets in GWT are a set of pre-built user interface components that can be customized and combined to create complex user interfaces. GWT provides a wide range of widgets, including buttons, text boxes, tables, and panels, among others. Here’s a table that lists some of the most commonly used widgets in GWT:
Widget | Description |
---|---|
Button | A clickable button that can trigger actions or events. |
TextBox | A text input field where users can enter text. |
TextArea | A larger text input field that can handle multiple lines. |
ListBox | A drop-down list of selectable options. |
CheckBox | A checkbox that can be checked or unchecked. |
RadioButton | A set of mutually exclusive radio buttons. |
Label | A simple text label that displays text. |
HTML | A widget that displays HTML-formatted text or images. |
Image | A widget that displays an image. |
TabPanel | A panel that can contain multiple tabs of content. |
Hyperlink | A clickable hyperlink that can lead to other pages or actions. |
FlexTable | A table with a flexible layout that can be dynamically updated. |
VerticalPanel | A panel that arranges widgets vertically. |
HorizontalPanel | A panel that arranges widgets horizontally. |
These are just a few examples of the many widgets available in GWT. Developers can also create their own custom widgets by extending the GWT Widget class and implementing their own logic and functionality.
What is Google Web Toolkit(GWT)?
Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is an open-source web application framework developed by Google. It is a Java-based framework that allows developers to write web applications in Java and compile the code to highly optimized JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. The framework was first released in 2006 and has since become a popular choice for developers who want to build large, scalable, and maintainable web applications. Additionally, GWT offers a comprehensive selection of user interface elements and makes it simple for developers to build complex and sophisticated web applications with ease.
