i am new to GWT, GWTP.
I have a PresenterWidget which gets instantiated multiple times and gets added to a slot. I want to define the amount of instances programmatically. I only know that I make a new Instance of the Widget by Injecting it.
@Inject MyWidgetPresenter first;
@Inject MyWidgetPresenter second;
// ...
Can I instantiate it with new? how do instantiate the view?
I tried to use a composite because it seemed to be the smartest solution, because it doesnt contain much logic anyway. But I cant add a composite to a slot.
Thanks in advance
You can get the ClientGinjector
reference and call a getYourPresenter() method. If it's declared as @Singleton
it will return the same instance, if is not will create a new instance, same as using new, but injecting all parameters to the constructor.
It will be the same as adding @Inject to a field.
Added:
If you don't have the required presenter there, at your ClientGinjector
, you can simply write a getter method at that interface. Ex:
public interface ClientGinjector extends Ginjector {
....
SideMenuPresenter getSideMenuPresenter();
....
}
In GWTP 1.0 the Ginjector is not needed anymore (auto-generated by gwtp).
In your case (and each time you need multiple instance of a class) the best is to inject a Provider of your WidgetPresenter:
@Inject Provider<MyWidgetPresenter> myWidgetPresenterProvider;
Each time you need a new instance of MyWidegetPresenter, call the get() method on the provider :
MyWidgetPresenter myWidgetPresenter = myWidgetPresenterProvider.get();
