The upgrade is not as straightforward(*) and requires some careful attention and testing, but is worth doing it to make possible various enhacements to ORR itself.\r\n\r\n(*) GWT 1.6 introduced some important changes (diff directory structure, new even handler interfaces, etc)\n\n_Original issue: http://code.google.com/p/mmisw/issues/detail?id=268_"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/mmisw/mmiorr/issues/comments/71062368","html_url":"https://github.com/mmisw/mmiorr/issues/268#issuecomment-71062368","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/mmisw/mmiorr/issues/268","id":71062368,"user":{"login":"mmisw","id":4140922,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/4140922?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw","html_url":"https://github.com/mmisw","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmisw/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-01-22T17:38:18Z","updated_at":"2015-01-22T17:38:18Z","body":"_From [caru...@gmail.com](https://code.google.com/u/113886747689301365533/) on April 18, 2012 14:12:57_\n\nAdditional tests with latest GWT 2.4.0\r\n\r\n- Various tests with the current widgets seem to work fine with GWT 2.4.0. But more exhaustive tests are needed before switching to it. \r\n\r\n- Note the GWT 2.4.0 no longer supports quirks mode. But enabling standards mode seems to not cause any really issues to the interface. (Besides, better to fully engage in standard mode ;)\r\n\r\n- Some preliminary tests with a new table implementation based on new GWT 2.4.0 widgets, pretty successful but not complete yet. The plan is to use some if the new widgets to improve the usability of the ORR, in particular, data entry in the voc2rdf interface.\r\n\r\nMore details: https://code.google.com/p/mmisw/source/browse/trunk/org.mmisw.orrportal/gwt2/gwt2.txt In summary, good progress but work still remains.\n\n**Labels:** Usability  \n"}}
