Re: problem sharing across packages

Hi Chris,
Dunno if you eventually got this working, but I just tried to do
exactly the same and after lots of combinations finally got it to
work.  First to make Eclipse happy you need to include the alternate
project in the build path, which puts it in .classpath.  Then, to give
it to the GWT compiler you need to both include the Common.gwt.xml
module in the correct directory, and add the project's source file to
the Run Configuration build path, which puts it in Project.launch.  To
be complete, you should also add "../Common/src" to the shell and
compile scripts for invoking it standalone.  Here is the final
structure with a common project and another project that uses it:

basedir/
  Common/
    src/
      com.blah.common/
        Common.gwt.xml (just <module/>)
      com.blah.common.client/
         Utils.java

  SomeProject/
    .classpath (... <classpathentry combineaccessrules="false"
kind="src" path="/Common"/> ...)
    SomeProject.launch (see below)
    SomeProject-shell (... -cp "../Common/src" ...)
    src/
      com.blah.someproject/
        SomeProject.gwt.xml (... <inherits
name="com.blah.common.Common"/ ...>
      com.blah.someproject.client/
        Code.java (... import com.blah.common.client.Utils; ...)

SomeProject.launch includes the following:
...
<listAttribute key="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.CLASSPATH">
...
  <listEntry value="&lt;?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;
encoding=&quot;UTF-8&quot;?&gt;&#10;&lt;runtimeClasspathEntry
internalArchive=&quot;/Common/src&quot; path=&quot;3&quot; type=&quot;
2&quot;/&gt;&#10;"/>
</listAttribute>

Hope this helps, or at least reminds me next time..
