Google Web Toolkit

Google Web Toolkit Publisher's Description:
Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is an open source Java software development framework that makes writing AJAX applications like Google Maps and Gmail easy for developers who don't speak browser quirks as a second language. Writing dynamic web applications today is a tedious and error-prone process; you spend 90% of your time working around subtle incompatibilities between web browsers and platforms, and JavaScript's lack of modularity makes sharing, testing, and reusing AJAX components difficult and fragile.

GWT lets you avoid many of these headaches while offering your users the same dynamic, standards-compliant experience. You write your front end in the Java programming language, and the GWT compiler converts your Java classes to browser-compliant JavaScript and HTML.

What's new in this version:

* Fixed “Operation Aborted” errors during startup on IE6/7.
* Fixed a minor security issue affecting the benchmark reporting system. We'd like to thank Daiki Fukumori of Secure Sky Technology, Inc. for reporting this.
* Hosted mode does not work properly on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). Please see the FAQ Entry: Can I use GWT 1.4 On Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)? for links to an unofficial build for Leopard users.
