Question

Here some explanations.

If my HTML page contains :

<div id="cancel_date">
  <h3 id="cancel_date_title"></h3>

  <table align="center">
    <tr>
      <td id="cancel_date_labelDetailService"></td>
      <td id="cancel_date_detailService"></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</div>

If my code contains

HTMLPanel container = HTMLPanel.wrap(Document.get().getElementById("cancel_date"));

public void init(){
 container.add(getMyWidget(), "cancel_date_detailService");
}

public void reload(){
container.addAndReplaceElement(getService(), "cancel_date_detailService");
}

The first time I load my page, I initialize it with the method init(). The second time and after, I call the method reload().
The first time I call the method reload(), everything works fine. But after, I have a NoSuchElementException like this :

I use GWT 2.4.0

Thanks a lot for help!!!

Answer 1

As its name implies, addAndReplaceElement find the element and replaces it with the given widget. Once you called addAndReplaceElement once for an element, that one element is gone, so the second call obviously won’t find it, resulting in the NoSuchElementException you’re seeing.

If you ever want to replace your widget with another, then you need to wrap it in an element (i.e. call add instead of addAndReplaceElement), and use remove to remove the previous widget.
