Building a GWT Declarative Interface

Introduction

GWT 2 has introduced the concept of declarative interfaces, that is, the interface can be described via an XML document, rather than built using code. The idea isn't new, it's seen in many new technologies such as Macromedia Flex, ASP.Net and JavaFX, however to the GWT developer it means the end of writing reams of boiler plate code.

In this post I show you how to create a simple Image Gallery widget that has a declarative interface and then how to create bigger interfaces using these widgets.
