Best Practice for JSON object recreation on client

Hello everybody,

First of all a big THANKS to everyone involved in developing and supporting GWT.

please correct me wherever I am wrong:

In the past you used JsonUtils.safeEval() to create a JavaScriptObject from a JSON String. As i understand it, jsinterop annotations on classes not extending JavaScriptObject are now preferred over JavaScriptObjects.

What is the recommended, future-proof way of having a server-client common class (i.e. package "shared") that can be:

- created and accessed in a JVM servlet
- created and accessed from the client end
- serialized to JSON / deserialized from JSON to the specific class on the server (e.g. using GSON)
- serialized to JSON / deserialized from JSON to the specific class on the client

Background: Using WebSocket Servers to bidirectionally transfer JSONified objects. No GWT-RPC involved.
Trying to avoid duplicate environment specific classes, boilerplate code etc.

Thanks for every clue and please overlook me not having a native English interface. ;)



kind regards,
max
