I'm trying now to implement next idea. We have on the same page simple Tapestry components with AJAX actions (like ActionLink or a Form with zone attribute). On the same page there are components that are, let's say, GWT-enabled. Second ones contain a link to your GWT module and HTML elements that will be picked up by GWT and used as widgets.
We also have Tapestry filter and GWT's RemoteServlet derived class registered in web.xml. The core of the idea is to have Tapestry send and process its own AJAX requests and save results to Session (luckily it can be done in several lines of code). GWT will process its own AJAX requests and use the same objects from the session. The real trick here is how to make GWT component to update itself when something has happened in pure Tapestry component. The only way how to solve this problem I see now is to add javascript listener to every AJAX component in pure Tapestry components. These listeners will push GWT components saying "update yourself" and they will update. But the problem is how to be sure that these listeners will be always called only *after* Tapestry AJAX is completely processed. If implemented, this can allow at least use in GWT components data submitted from Tapestry component. Does anybody have an idea, how can Javascript function be implemented just after Tapestry AJAX call processing?
