Announcing Sencha GXT 3.0
We’re excited to announce the general availability of Sencha GXT 3.0! Sencha GXT, previously known as Ext GWT, is our Java based web application framework that leverages the Google Web Toolkit compiler. With the Sencha GXT 3.0 framework, developers can build high performance web applications with cross-browser compatibility across all desktop browsers.
Ext GWT 3.0 State API
The Ext GWT 3.0 State API provides the ability to persist state information. The API supports saving state data to different persistence providers. These include providers based on cookies and HTML5 local storage. The data are saved and retrieved as a map from string keys to string values. State data are serialized to strings and deserialized to objects via the bean-like interfaces of GWT AutoBeans. This data is retrieved asynchronously, and this allows for asynchronous providers such as those that communicate via RPC.

This article walks through the details of this redesign and gives some insight into the final design as well as a few code samples.
