Friday April 04, 2008GWT-Ext 2.0.3 released with charting, maps, portal and other goodies
GWT-Ext 2.0.3 has been released. This version is compatible with Ext 2.0.2 and GWT 1.5. The new features in this release are :
Charts
Support for Charting via YUI charts. Line, Bar, Pie, Column charts are all available as a standard GWT-Ext Panel subclass. Charts use the standard Store as thier underlying data source.

Mapping API
Support for Mapping API via Mapstraction. The supported Map providers include OpenStreetMap, Yahoo, Google, Microsoft, Map24, MultiMap, MapQuest, FreeEarth and OpenLayers.
Various Maps are now available as a standard GWT-Ext Panel subclass. The motivation for the GWT-Ext Mapping API is not to provide the same level of features as other GWT Google Maps API's which are far more feature rich and complete. Instead, this API is over mapstraction which provides several commonly used features such as markers, polylines, GeoRSS and such using the same API and this may be sufficient for many applications and gives end users some flexibility to pick a map provider that meets their needs and license requirements.
The desired map provider can be instantiated by a factory, and the rest of the code remains the same and works across various map providers (some free, and others commercial). Thanks to VideoProtein for sponsoring this effort.
