Hey all, Sorry to keep spamming GWT 2.0 issues.
I've run into a difference in how TypeOracle works that seems to have changed in GWT 2.0. In previous versions, calling context.getTypeOracle().getTypes() from a generator would limit itself to types available on the <source> paths. I have some code that took advantage of that to build a quick-and-dirty annotation-based dependency-injection framework. It generates a single factory class which contains methods to initialize all of the injectable classes (and injectee) classes available on the <source> path. It seems that getTypeOracle().getTypes() is now returning all classes available on the classpath, rather than limiting itself to <source>- specified classes. These classes are picked up by the factory and generated into the new class, which then ends up causing a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError when this class is instantiated: Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: XXX at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:2357) at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:1808) at com .google .gwt .dev .shell .DispatchClassInfo .lazyInitTargetMembersUsingReflectionHelper(DispatchClassInfo.java:163) at com .google .gwt .dev .shell.DispatchClassInfo.lazyInitTargetMembers(DispatchClassInfo.java: 146) at com .google .gwt.dev.shell.DispatchClassInfo.getMemberId(DispatchClassInfo.java:55) at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.CompilingClassLoader $DispatchClassInfoOracle.getDispId(CompilingClassLoader.java:166) at com .google .gwt .dev.shell.CompilingClassLoader.getDispId(CompilingClassLoader.java:930) at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.Jsni $JsSourceGenWithJsniIdentFixup.visit(Jsni.java:105) The exception itself is probably a bug (not sure why it didn't trigger a compiler error), but I'm not sure if TypeOracle.getTypes() returning all types is by design. I've been looking for an excuse to ditch the custom IoC code for Guice- GWT, however. Matt. -- http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors
