GWT 2.1 RC1

The GWT team has just pushed out the first relase candidate of GWT 2.1.

The download can be found here:

http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/webtoolkit/download_2_1_rc1.html

The announcement was made on the official  google web toolkit blog, in short:

• MVP Framework (Activities and Places)
• RequestFactory
• Server-side Speed Traces
• Logging
• Safe HTML

The team also has finally created documentation on the new topics, so there no need to do source-code-reverse-engineering to keep up with 2.1 changes…

• DevGuideMvpActivitiesAndPlaces.html
• DevGuideSecuritySafeHtml.html
• DevGuideRequestFactory.html
• DevGuideLogging.html

Unfortunately, the team did not provided documentation on the “new Editor framework that allows you to bind your DTOs to a customizable UI which handles all of necessary grunt work of validating and syncing change sets”.
