GWT with JDO problem
- by Maksim
I just start playing with GWT I'm having a really hard time to make GWT + JAVA + JDO + Google AppEngine working with DataStore.
I was trying to follow different tutorial but had no luck. For example I wend to these tutorials: TUT1 TUT2
I was not able to figure out how and what i need to do in order to make this work.
Please look at my simple code and tell me what do i need to do so i can persist it to the datastore:
1. ADDRESS ENTITY
package com.example.rpccalls.client;
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.jdo.annotations.IdGeneratorStrategy;
import javax.jdo.annotations.Persistent;
import javax.jdo.annotations.PrimaryKey;
public class Address implements Serializable{
@PrimaryKey
@Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY)
private int addressID;
@Persistent private String address1;
@Persistent private String address2;
@Persistent private String city;
@Persistent private String state;
@Persistent private String zip;
public Address(){}
public Address(String a1, String a2, String city, String state, String zip){
this.address1 = a1;
this.address2 = a2;
this.city = city;
this.state = state;
this.zip = zip;
}
/* Setters and Getters */
}
2. PERSON ENTITY
package com.example.rpccalls.client;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import javax.jdo.annotations.IdGeneratorStrategy;
import javax.jdo.annotations.PersistenceCapable;
import javax.jdo.annotations.Persistent;
import javax.jdo.annotations.PrimaryKey;
import com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Key;
@PersistenceCapable
public class Person implements Serializable{
@PrimaryKey
@Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY)
private Key key;
@Persistent private String name;
@Persistent private int age;
@Persistent private char gender;
@Persistent ArrayList<Address> addresses;
public Person(){}
public Person(String name, int age, char gender){
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.gender = gender;
}
/* Getters and Setters */
}
3. RPCCalls
package com.example.rpccalls.client;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import com.google.gwt.core.client.EntryPoint;
import com.google.gwt.core.client.GWT;
import com.google.gwt.event.dom.client.ClickEvent;
import com.google.gwt.event.dom.client.ClickHandler;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.Window;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.rpc.AsyncCallback;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.Button;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.RootPanel;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.TextBox;
public class RPCCalls implements EntryPoint {
private static final String SERVER_ERROR = "An error occurred while attempting to contact the server. Please check your network connection and try again.";
private final RPCCallsServiceAsync rpccallService = GWT.create(RPCCallsService.class);
TextBox nameTxt = new TextBox();
Button btnSave = getBtnSave();
public void onModuleLoad() {
RootPanel.get("inputName").add(nameTxt);
RootPanel.get("btnSave").add(btnSave);
}
private Button getBtnSave(){
Button btnSave = new Button("SAVE");
btnSave.addClickHandler(
new ClickHandler(){
public void onClick(ClickEvent event){
saveData2DB(nameTxt.getText());
}
}
);
return btnSave;
}
void saveData2DB(String name){
AsyncCallback<String> callback = new AsyncCallback<String>() {
public void onFailure(Throwable caught) {
Window.alert("WOOOHOOO, ERROR: " + SERVER_ERROR);
