GWT: Retrieving data from Postgres in GWT CellTable

Question

I have a LinkedList as

/**
   * The list of data to display.
   */
private static final List<Contact> CONTACTS = new LinkedList<Contact>(Arrays.asList(
        new Contact("Some string", "1234", "5678")));

and now instead of this List I want to retrieve this data from Postgres. I don't know how should I do that. An example would be great! Thank you.

Have a look at the RPC tutorial at Google Developers. It builds on top of their stockwatcher project and explains the basics of a client-server solution with gwt.

For your project you'll want a service that can respond with data from a database.
