Getting started with netbeans 6.8 and GWT-ext

[udayanga]

hi,

I'm new to gwt-ext. :)

I used netbeans 6.8 to create a simple project(add new combo box).
but it's not compile.(:|

I have add and set all the paths and libraries.
this is my code segment in the onModuleLoad() method.



public void onModuleLoad() {
final Label label = new Label("Hello, GWT!!!");
final Button button = new Button("Click me!");
ComboBox c = new ComboBox();
c.setVisible(true);

button.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {
public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
label.setVisible(!label.isVisible());
}
});
RootPanel.get().add(c);
RootPanel.get().add(label);
}



This is the compilation error :-

Please explain me how to add codes in the

link into my netbeans project.

thanks.

I am working with Netbeans and Grails. I can't get code completion to work with ExtJS in external JavaScript files or gsp files. If I create a standard Java Web Project it works. It even works with Ruby on Rails. I can't however get it to work in Grails which is what I am currently using. Does anyone know how to get this to work.

Did you inherit GXT module?

Add this to you MODULE.gwt.xml.


<inherits name='com.extjs.gxt.ui.GXT' />

you can also install the GWT4NB (https://gwt4nb.dev.java.net/) plugin for netbeans.

Can u tel me how to develop a simple form using showcase component?
I tried it but its not working.

[Arno.Nyhm]

my suggested steps for you:

1) install GWT4NB
2) create a complete new project only for gwt
3) get it running

after this enable the gxt:
4) include gxt.jar in the library
5) include the gxt inherits in yourapp.gwt.xml
6) copy resources to your project
7) include the resources in yourapp.html
8) check with firebug and / or WebDeveloper Plugin if all classes and resources are loaded
9) then create your first GXT window


10) as last point copy some files from the examples.


please go it step by step and let us now at which point you stuck.
and please: do not write only "it is not working"! with this line nobody can and not will help you.
better: describe your current state. show us your current code / make a screenshot / copy the messages from netbeans and stacktraces (from netbeans output / console / Tomcat log (or other webserver log) / GWT console log
