First Roo/GWT project leads to compile issues

[niklassaers]

Hi guys,

I love music temperaments, so I thought I'd use it to make a Roo application to learn about Roo meets GWT meets Google Apps. So I grabbed STS, added the extensions and made a little app, and here's the log, after these commands were issues I had a project with compile issues:

project --topLevelPackage com.saers.temperaments --projectName Temperaments --java 6 --template STANDARD_PROJECT
persistence setup --provider DATANUCLEUS --database GOOGLE_APP_ENGINE 
entity --class ~.data.entities.Temperament --testAutomatically
field string --fieldName name
field string --fieldName description
field string --fieldName referencingUrl
enum type --class ~.enums.CommaType
enum constant --name PythagoreanComma
enum constant --name SyntonicComma
enum constant --name HoldrianComma
enum constant --name CentDeviation
entity --class ~.data.entities.TemperamentEntry --testAutomatically
field enum --type ~.enums.CommaType --fieldName deviationType
field number --fieldName amount --type java.lang.Double --notNull 
field set --fieldName entries --class ~.data.entities.Temperament --element ~.data.entities.TemperamentEntry --sizeMin 12 --sizeMax 12 --notNull 
gwt setup
perform package

Now the errors I get are:

Serious stuff it seems. Any clues to what is going on?

Hi Nik

At this stage you can only create simple application with roo and gwt. So collection means onetomany mapping and also UIBinderTools (Except TextBox and DateBox)are not accepted by roo and gwt. But these problems will resolved soon as per Mr. Ben ALex

You can see the anticipated dates and version labels via http://tinyurl.com/rooroadmap

Ah, I wasn't aware of that. Thank you very much :-)

[niklassaers]

To follow up, this is still an issue with M3

[arakhshan]

I am confused, this issue is marked as resolved in M3 but OneToMany or ManyToMany relationships will cause compile error complaining about SetRecord & ListRecord.

[niklassaers]

Hi Arakh, you are of course right, the issue was pooled into ROO-889 which was marked as solved for M3, but the issue was not, so I reposted it as ROO-1295, and it has from what I can read been targeted for M4.

Cheers

Nik

[rossjudson]

As of M3 you can add a MANY_TO_ONE reference to the child object -- as an example, you can add an "invoice" field (of type Invoice) to an entity of type "LineItem". This appears to work in at least the HIBERNATE case.
