GWT HTTP

A future-proof port of the com.google.gwt.http.HTTP GWT module, with no dependency on gwt-user (besides the Java Runtime Emulation), to prepare for GWT 3 / J2Cl.

Browser compatibility

The code should be compatible with all evergreen browsers, and Internet Explorer 10 and 11.

Dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.gwtproject.http</groupId>
    <artifactId>gwt-http</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

Migrating from c.g.g.http.HTTP

1. Add the dependency to your build.

   For Maven:

   <dependency>
     <groupId>org.gwtproject.http</groupId>
     <artifactId>gwt-http</artifactId>
     <version>${gwtHttpVersion}</version>
   </dependency>

   For Gradle:

   compile "org.gwtproject.http:gwt-http:${gwtHttpVersion}"

2. Update your GWT module to use

   <inherits name="org.gwtproject.http.HTTP" />

   (either change from com.google.gwt.http.HTTP, or add it if you inherited it transitively from another GWT module)

3. Change your imports in your Java source files:

   import org.gwtproject.http.client.RequestBuilder;
   import org.gwtproject.http.client.URL;
   import org.gwtproject.http.client.UrlBuilder;

Instructions

• run mvn clean install
