How to add CSS AnimationEnd event handler to GWT widget?

Question

I would like my GWT widget to be notified when its CSS animation is over.

In plain HTML/Javascript this is easily done by registering an event handler like so:

Answer 1

You can always write some of the native (JavaScript) code yourself:

public class CssAnimation {
  public static native void registerCssCallback(
      Element elem, AsyncCallback callback) /*-{
    elem.addEventListener("webkitAnimationEnd", function() {
      $entry(@CssAnimation::cssCallback(Lcom/google/gwt/user/client/rpc/AsyncCallback;)(callback));
    }, false);
  }-*/;


  protected static void cssCallback(AsyncCallback callback) {
    callback.onSuccess(null);
  }
}

I haven't tried the code above. Let me know if it works as expected.

You can use GWT's Animation class to achieve the same effect. For example,

  new com.google.gwt.animation.client.Animation() {
    final com.google.gwt.dom.client.Style es = widget.getElement().getStyle();

    @Override
    protected void onUpdate(double progress) {
      setOpacity(1 - interpolate(progress));
    }

    private void setOpacity(double opacity) {
      es.setProperty("opacity", Double.toString(opacity));
      es.setProperty("filter", "alpha(opacity=" + 100 * opacity + ")");
    }

    @Override
    protected void onComplete() {
      /* ... run some code when animation completes ... */
    }
  }.run(2000, 5000);
