The original idea was to have some kind of "ReachabilityOracle" that could tell a Linker if some Java method were still contained in the compiled JS output. The Generator would create a task-list of resources to add to the compiled output, and it would be the Linker's responsibility to add that resource only if the referencing method were still in the compilation.
SOYC as implemented today can fulfill the ReachabilityOracle requirements, so the information is available, but we need to make SOYC run faster and with less overhead so it can be turned on by default. -- Bob Vawter Google Web Toolkit Team --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
