Maven and GWT - a never ending story? - 0 views

  • One of the cool things on GWT is, that you cannot just use Java as a programming language, you can also use all your cool and great tools, like Eclipse, JUnit, or build tools like Ant, Gradle or Maven. Sure you can, but this Maven thing seems not to be so easy. So lets take a look on how to solve it.
  • keep the structure clean by separating client (GWT) and server (maybe Java or even any other language) code in a strict way. This means, that your GWT code will not be in the same project as your Java EE web descriptor (web.xml).
  • If you have done the import, our photo-album-server module will be a Dynamic Web Project in Eclipse and you can add it to your Tomcat, JBoss or whatever server runtime. You can start it and run it as you like.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • the GWT compiler configuration is done in the web application project. This is the best place, since you can just change the dependency and the GWT module and the compiler will compile a completly different GWT client. With other words, the web application pulls the right JAR out from the Maven space and uses it. This is much better than letting another project compile some JavaScript and than copy the JavaScript to your web application, or whatever solution you might find. So just add the GWT Maven plugin configuration and dependency below to the photo-album-server module’s POM.
  • our project is just a simple Java project.

GWT 2.0.3 + Maven2 + Eclipse - Google Web Toolkit | Google Groups - 0 views

  •  
    I converted the GWT starter app into a Maven project (see attachment), which might serve as a good starting point for you. It uses GWT 2.0.3, gwt-maven-plugin 1.2, and Google Plugin for Eclipse 1.3.1. I've also included an Eclipse project and launch configuration.

Can anyone provide a step by step maven + gwt mvp tutorial? - 0 views

  • There is an outdated archetype which creates a very simple Gwt project without tests nor RPCs. Unfortunately the generated pom.xml is for old gwt versions and needs that you do a bunch of changes by hand.   mvn archetype:generate  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.codehaus.mojo \    -DarchetypeArtifactId=gwt-maven-plugin  -DarchetypeVersion=1.1 \    -DgroupId=com.foo  -DartifactId=myApplication - Lately I have sent a patch to gwt which adds the ability to generate pom.xm to webAppCreator. But the patch is under review and it wont be available until a new gwt version (in the case it is included). http://gwt-code-reviews.appspot.com/397801/show - So, I recommend you to get the pom.xml from a working application and use it as a template for your project. Some days ago, I  ported the google contacts example application in order to use available libraries for MVP and add tests for all the code. I think It should be a good point for starting your project: http://gwt-workshop.googlecode.com/files/GwtWsMvpContacts.zip
