RPC calls are normally used -for communicating stateless events, such as button clicks or other user -interaction, in contrast to changing the shared state. Either party can make an -RPC call to the other side. When a client-side widget makes a call, a server -request is made. Calls made from the server-side to the client-side are -communicated in the response of the server request during which the call was -made. - -If you use Eclipse and enable the "Full-Fledged" widget in the New Vaadin Widget -wizard, it automatically creates a component with an RPC stub. - -[[gwt.rpc.server-side]] -== RPC Calls to the Server-Side - -RPC calls from the client-side to the server-side are made through an RPC -interface that extends the [interfacename]#ServerRpc# interface. A server RPC -interface simply defines any methods that can be called through the interface. - -For example: - - ----- -public interface MyComponentServerRpc extends ServerRpc { - public void clicked(String buttonName); -} ----- - -The above example defines a single [methodname]#clicks()# RPC call, which takes -a [classname]#MouseEventDetails# object as the parameter. - -You can pass the most common standard Java types, such as primitive and boxed -primitive types, [classname]#String#, and arrays and some collections ( -[classname]#List#, [classname]#Set#, and [classname]#Map#) of the supported -types. Also the Vaadin [classname]#Connector# and some special internal types -can be passed. - -An RPC method must return void - the widget set compiler should complain if it -doesn't. - -[[gwt.rpc.server-side.calling]] -=== Making a Call - -Before making a call, you need to instantiate the server RPC object with -[methodname]#RpcProxy.create()#. After that, you can make calls through the -server RPC interface that you defined, for example as follows: - - ----- -@Connect(MyComponent.class) -public class MyComponentConnector - extends AbstractComponentConnector { - - public MyComponentConnector() { - getWidget().addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() { - public void onClick(ClickEvent event) { - final MouseEventDetails mouseDetails = - MouseEventDetailsBuilder - .buildMouseEventDetails( - event.getNativeEvent(), - getWidget().getElement()); - MyComponentServerRpc rpc = - getRpcProxy(MyComponentServerRpc.class); - - // Make the call - rpc.clicked(mouseDetails.getButtonName()); - } - }); - } -} ----- - - -[[gwt.rpc.server-side.handling]] -=== Handling a Call - -RPC calls are handled in a server-side implementation of the server RPC -interface. The call and its parameters are serialized and passed to the server -in an RPC request transparently. - - ----- -public class MyComponent extends AbstractComponent { - private MyComponentServerRpc rpc = - new MyComponentServerRpc() { - private int clickCount = 0; - - public void clicked(String buttonName) { - Notification.show("Clicked " + buttonName); - } - }; - - public MyComponent() { - ... - registerRpc(rpc); - } -} ----- - - - - - -- cgit v1.2.3
