What is new in Google Gin 1.5?

Question

Has anyone tried the recently released version of Google Gin (1.5)? I would like to know the new features in the release and any usage experiences with GWT.

Answer 1

This release brings some major new features to Gin, such as AsyncProviders, AssistedInject and JSR330 compatibility. There are also plenty of bug fixes and better error reporting included.

As previously discussed, this release contains two compiled and source versions, one for use with GWT 2.2.1 and before and one for GWT 2.2.0 and later.

Answer 2

From my perspective the main difference was compatibility with GWT 2.2. GIN 1.0 doesn't work with GWT 2.2.
