Hi team,

I'm working on an existing project with (gwt 2.7 , maven Java 6,spring..), and we want to upgrade to 2,8 or 2.9 atest version.

And I want to know the impact of that, will we need to change a lot of code, what the steps shoud I follow ?

See http://www.gwtproject.org/release-notes.html

From a quick scan, no breaking change besides http://www.gwtproject.org/release-notes.html#Release_Notes_2_8_0_RC1

And you'll have to update your Java version too.

 

Also what the gain of upgrading to the latest version ? there is any improvement in term of security ?

Bug fixes mostly, also the ability to use Java 8 (or even 11) syntax and some APIs if you want (lambdas, streams, etc.) and improvements around JsInterop.

Again, see the release notes for details.
