Thanks for your help Jens.  Is there some documentation that explains this 
syntax to any degree?  All I can find is this and it isn't enough - 
http://www.gwtproject.org/doc/latest/DevGuideCodingBasicsJSNI.html#calling


I've tried what you describe but when I call it from my external javascript 
I get an error indicating that the function I'm calling is not defined.  It 
passes the GWT compiler but at runtime it can't find the function.  I feel 
like the syntax isn't correct but I'm not seeing it.  Should "Bar" be the 
instance name of the internal class within the outer class?  I tried that 
too, same result.

Here is the updated native method:

public native void setValueFromExternal(int newValue) /*-{
bar.maxinstan...@pkg.foo.bar::setValue(I)(newValue);
}-*/; 


The call from the external javascript file is still the same:

function setValue(value){
    this.setValueFromExternal(value);

}
