Hello All, I'm playing with the src of GWT in these days to try out some hack, using Maven, and while doing this I needed the GWT-Tools dependencies.
I've searched the dependencies in Maven Central Repo: http://search.maven.org/ but because some jar is rebased with JarJar, I've used maven-shade-plugin to rebase in the same way the dependencies I needed. So, I came out with a "PoC" that proves it is possible to build (a subset of) GWT-Dev using dependencies based and rebased on maven. As the actual way to manage the gwt-tools seems to be an "throw all in the bucket" approach, with folders like Guava that includes 5 different versions: Handwritten:gwt-tools cristcost$ ll lib/guava/: total 0 drwxr-xr-x 7 cristcost staff 238 2 Nov 2013 guava-10.0.1 drwxr-xr-x 5 cristcost staff 170 2 Nov 2013 guava-15.0 drwxr-xr-x 5 cristcost staff 170 30 Giu 09:51 guava-16.0.1 drwxr-xr-x 6 cristcost staff 204 30 Giu 09:51 guava-18.0 drwxr-xr-x 10 cristcost staff 340 2 Nov 2013 guava-r06 Wouldn't it make sense to define a maven project what represents the required libs and try to get rid of gwt-tools folder for the build? In this way, retrieving the dependencies to build with ant could be done easily with the command: mvn dependency:copy-dependencies (and the project dependencies are downloaded into target/dependecies) In a new message I'll share a synthesis with significant excerpt of pom.xml configuration required to make the PoC to work.
