GWT 2.7 - SmartGWT 5 does not load skins

[andyx1975]

I tried gwt 2.7 with super dev mode today... I do not get it running proper... it seems that no smartgwt skins will be loaded.... my custom images are loaded.

My gwt.xml is the same as the one in the showcase:

After adding the line "<set-configuration-property name='xsiframe.failIfScriptTag' value='FALSE'/>"... I get the following error:

Has anybody any idea?

Issue confirmed

I've hit exactly the same issue. Did you manage to resolve it somehow?

[andyx1975]

I know the reason... You can not add the smartgwt scripts in super dev Mode to your gwt.XML ...you need to add them to your Main HTML page.

Reference:
http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/...eshooting.html

I tried to add the following... without any success:

<script type="text/javascript" src="[myApp]/Enterprise/load_skin.js"></script>

[mnowrot]

Yes me too. Also I've done the same attempt to troubleshoot it, with the same result.

I've reported this as a bug: https://code.google.com/p/smartgwt/issues/detail?id=758

[Isomorphic]

This is the result of an intentional change on the part of GWT. We're looking into the best way to solve how it impacts our code.

[Isomorphic]

After adding the line "<set-configuration-property name='xsiframe.failIfScriptTag' value='FALSE'/>"... I get the following error:

Note that the line mentioned merely suppresses the error; the scripts are still not loaded, so it's not a solution.

[Isomorphic]

Yes me too. Also I've done the same attempt to troubleshoot it, with the same result.

I've reported this as a bug: https://code.google.com/p/smartgwt/issues/detail?id=758

We have added an update to the Issue.

So it's not possible to upgrade to gwt 2.7 because of this open issue ? Please post here when there are not open issues with 2.7

[mnowrot]

Solved

Please see the solution at https://code.google.com/p/smartgwt/issues/detail?id=758

In a nutshell:
1) in your module file use *NoScriptNoTheme versions of the inherited SmartGWT modules
2) As a first <script> tag in your page's <head> use

<script>var isomorphicDir = "[module-name]/sc/"</script>

In my case, the [module-name] was "smartgwt" (no quotes)

thanks for the information so far, although I'm using SmartGWT 4.1p (20141126) it's working.

The only problem I have is with the skinning.

adding
<inherits name='com.smartclient.theme.enterprise.Enterprise'/>
procudes the linking error as well,

as stated here (http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/javadoc/com/smartgwt/client/docs/SuperDevModeTroubleshooting.html) this line
<script src="[app]/sc/skins/load_skin.js"></script>
only loads some default theme, but not even these images are loaded, eg.
=== 2014-12-01 17:05:31,827 [1-49] INFO Download - File D:/somepath/target/app-SNAPSHOT/app/sc/skins/standard/images/TreeGrid/folder_closed.gif not found, sending 404

nevertheless, I want to load the Enterprise theme. in my html file I tried
<script src="dgui/sc/skins/Enterprise/load_skin.js"></script>
without success.

How do I define my theme?

Regards

[DSC-Support]

maybe it's just me, but loading the skin only works without the '"', eg.

<script src=dgui/sc/skins/Enterprise/load_skin.js></script>

while loading the modules works with the '"', eg.

<script src="dgui/sc/modules/ISC_Core.js"></script>

[Isomorphic]

The SGWT LGPL Showcase provides an example of how a project can be configured to load scripts only from the main webpage. If you download the SGWT LGPL Showcase you should be able to build the war and launch it into SuperDevMode without any modifications.

It also contains an example of a working skin changer (in the main webpage) that should keep working in SuperDevMode.

[Isomorphic]

A fix for the script tag limitation with the xsiframe linker (default in GWT 2.7.0) has been committed to SGWT 5.1d, and will be in the nightlies built tonight.

This will be eventually ported back to SGWT 4.1p, but if those who originally reported this problem can test their applications against SGWT 5.1d we may be able to immediately correct any issues.

Currently, the fix is configured to run for GWT 2.5 and newer where appropriate. (The xsiframe linker is required for SuperDevMode even before GWT 2.7.0, so the issue is actually present in earlier versions.)

[Isomorphic]

Note that issues with SGWT 5.1d unrelated to the script tag loading feature should, of course, be reported in separate threads with the usual required information included.

[edulid]

Is this fix also backported for 4.1p ? I need to upgrade to gwt 2.7 soon and want to know if all issues are fixed.
