Hm, I hadn't thought about making the CodeServer the default yet. I've been helping folks convert to super dev mode every chance I get so my feeling is that keeping the legacy the default method that starts up with SDM probably is the way to go on for a bit longer. I've got to be careful I don't bite off more than I can chew so my goal is to get the CodeServer launcher running swimmingly. That said, I'm afraid of upsetting the applecart too much by doing any big changes. Since the CodeServer launcher came later, I've been keeping it as a new launcher. I think it's effective to use with custom integrated and external server runtimes. The integrated jetty server usually doesn't fit most enterprises production structures so it causes all kinds of dev strategy workarounds to make things work well. And using DevMode with -noserver works great for most things but the proxy of the arguments from DevMode doesn't work for every situation like CodeServer does.
Although there is another branch for the GWT Eclipse plugin that I'm working on which will be the new and improved version. This I think might be the ticket to change the feature here. In fact I like the idea for this branch. I'm having to separate out the Google cloud tools to make way for combining up with the cooler stuff coming from the Google Cloud Plugin. Good idea, thanks. -Brandon On Thu, Aug 25, 2016 at 5:24 PM Jens <jens.nehlme...@gmail.com> wrote: > I guess the future is CodeServer + optional external servlet container. > > So IMHO it would be more straight forward to just have "GWT Web > Application" which always launches CodeServer.main() directly and not > through DevMode.main().
