Navigate between GWT modules

Question

I\'ve divided my GWT app into multiple modules, what\'s the best way to navigate between them?

Currently I\'m using Window.Location.assign(\"foo.html#bar\")

Answer 1

History.newItem only works for history within the current module. To change to another page I think the best way is to use Window.Location.assign.

I don't fully remember the issue (and perhaps it has been fixed now), but in our application we stopped using relative URLs as they would sometimes break (we have a comment referencing http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit/browse_thread/thread/f79e7d5e002b48f6).

To this end we had a method that did the following:

public void goToRelativePage(final String relativeURL) {
  Window.Location.assign(GWT.getHostPageBaseURL() + relativeURL);
}
