    • +This is a prerelease version of the upcoming Vaadin 6.3 release. +Samples and documentation are still incomplete. There may be bugs, even +critical ones, please help us to find them. +

    Vaadin @version@ is an update release for Vaadin 6. In addition to various fixes, it contains a number of significant enhancements.

    +

    See Change Log for a full list of closed tickets in this release.

    +

    Problem fixes and enhancements planned for upcoming releases can be found from the Vaadin Roadmap in Vaadin Trac.

    As always, when upgrading from an earlier version, you should recompile any custom widget sets and refresh your project in Eclipse. If you are upgrading from earlier than -6.2.0, notice that Vaadin 6.2 uses GWT 1.7.0 (included in the installation package). See +6.3.0, notice that Vaadin 6.3 uses GWT 2.0 (included in the installation package). See General Upgrade Notes for more details on upgrading.

    Upgrading from an Earlier Version of Vaadin 6

    -

    -The way how widget sets are defined has been simplified in Vaadin 6.2, as described above. Existing projects, -where custom widgets (a custom widget set) are used, must be migrated when upgrading to Vaadin 6.2. -Projects where the default widget set is used do not need migration. For most -projects this should be a quite painless upgrade. -

    Package for the experimental GWT Out-of-Process Hosted Mode

    - -

    We provide a separate (platform independent) installation package -(vaadin-oophm-@version@.tar.gz) for the -experimental Out of Process Hosted Mode (OOPHM) of GWT, which allows -debugging client-side code in GWT Hosted Mode with a regular web -browser. Using the OOPHM requires installing a browser plugin (available -for Mozilla Firefox, IE, and WebKit). See the manual section on OOPHM -for more details.

    - -

    The Linux version of GWT Hosted Mode Browser is no longer compatible with Vaadin (#2299), so the OOPHM is the only option for -debugging in hosted mode in Linux.

    - -

    The GWT 1.7.0 version included in the OOPHM package is a custom -build from GWT trunk and is not 100% compatible with the official GWT -1.7.0 release (#3270).

    - -

    As the OOPHM package is experimental and because there are -differences between the version packaged with Vaadin and the official -version of GWT, you should use it only for debugging purposes during -development. For production use, and generally when you absolutely do -not need to debug using OOPHM, you should compile your custom widget -sets with the regular Vaadin package for your platform.
