Hello everyone, Just a note that you would probably want to use hosted mode with the -noserver option before bulking up the server-side on the embedded Tomcat server. A few reasons to do this:
1) The embedded Tomcat server is somewhat custom built, meaning you can't expect everything that would work in your plain vanilla Tomcat server to also work in the embedded Tomcat server. The server is really there as a means for quickly getting into hosted mode rather than to provide an actual development application server. 2) The embedded Tomcat server is going to be replaced by an embedded Jetty server in GWT 1.6 for performance reasons. You can check out how to use hosted mode with the -noserver option on the FAQ doc linked below.
