GXT/GWT widget for the 'object' tag

Is there a widget that is synonymous with the '<object>' tag or can I just use a HTML tag with object:

I was thinking of this but it is not idiomatic:

import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.HTML;
final HTML h = new HTML("<object width='100%' height='100%' data='/media/invoice1.pdf'></object>");
        container.setCenterWidget(h);


<object width='100%' height='100%' data='/media/invoice1.pdf'></object>

This is with gxt 3.0.1

There isn't any gwt widget wrapping the object tag, but you have the ObjectElement which you can use to create the element and attach it to the document:

  // Create an element and programatically set its attributes
  ObjectElement o = Document.get().createObjectElement();
  o.setWidth("100%");
  o.setHeight("100%");
  o.setData("/media/invoice1.pdf");

  // Attach the element to the document
  Document.get().getBody().appendChild(o);

  // Optionally you could wrap your element into a widget.
  Widget w = HTMLPanel.wrap(o);
