public class RootLayoutPanel extends LayoutPanel
A singleton implementation of LayoutPanel that always attaches itself to the document body (i.e. RootPanel.get()).

This panel automatically calls RequiresResize.onResize() on itself when initially created, and whenever the window is resized.

NOTE: This widget will only work in standards mode, which requires that the HTML page in which it is run have an explicit <!DOCTYPE> declaration.

Example

public class LayoutPanelExample implements EntryPoint {

  public void onModuleLoad() {
    // Attach two child widgets to a LayoutPanel, laying them out horizontally,
    // splitting at 50%.
    Widget childOne = new HTML("left"), childTwo = new HTML("right");
    LayoutPanel p = new LayoutPanel();
    p.add(childOne);
    p.add(childTwo);

    p.setWidgetLeftWidth(childOne, 0, PCT, 50, PCT);
    p.setWidgetRightWidth(childTwo, 0, PCT, 50, PCT);

    // Attach the LayoutPanel to the RootLayoutPanel. The latter will listen for
    // resize events on the window to ensure that its children are informed of
    // possible size changes.
    RootLayoutPanel rp = RootLayoutPanel.get();
    rp.add(p);
  }
