Edwin,
The hack is working although it's CPU hungry. The map is a lot less snappier
with PNG than it is with GIFs (or maybe I just got biased by your warnings).
As for adding major third party support like Google Maps', it doesn't seem
like there is much work ahead, for some reason (most probably the new 2.8 ol
bug fixes) I recompiled the code and Google maps layer is working with very
few issues!
Now that I really think about it, I think the issue I was having with Google
Maps layer had more to do with ol 2.7 than with gwt-ol (In the source it was
commented that the Google layer has to be a sub of EventLayer and some other
class but it's not). so as an attempt to get around this, I inserted some
native js function that takes the map object, builds the Google layer
directly using the ol js constructor and then returns the new Map object
which I reassign to the JSObject of the java one. This didn't work either.
But now both java instantiation and the native one are working.
Also, the issue I was having with firefox and that I mentioned in some
earlier email is due to GXT and not gwt-openlayers.
Cheers,
