How to request and receive data from server?

[deejay]

hello,

if i have a ui component on which i can bind a datasource, i can use the datasource interface.

But for example: i have a simple textbox oder a simple label and want to get the text from the server. what is the correct approach with smartgwt?

thanks !

Please :( should i use GWT RPC in such cases? I've read SmartGWT does not recommend this approach...
