Hi Brian,

I had problems similar to you when studying JsInterop, so I've tried your 
code.
I've forked your repo (see https://github.com/cristcost/jspoc) and I have 
made it work but with some considerations to take into account.
Other than the problems on using JsInterop annotations as reported by Jens, 
I've found a script load timing issue:
you execute the the Javascript code in the main page script, but at that 
point GWT has not yet loaded!

Putting the execution of your javascript code inside window.onload event is 
not again enough: I think this is because of using the xsiframe linker (I'm 
curious to try out with the sso linker).
So I have used a 3 seconds timeout... 

In the fork I've added some console logging to outline the time each part 
of the Javascript is executed, and the order is:
- first javascript inside main html page is executed
- then javascript inside the window.onload
- finally the GWT entry point

Your javascript code, with the fixes suggested by Jens, has worked after a 
3 seconds timeout.

Of course I don't like this workaround, but a more general approach could 
be to have your application started from the GWT entry point (i.e. define a 
"main" function in javascript, then run it from GWT entry point). If you 
don't like the ping-pong between JS and GWT, you may try different solution 
to detect when GWT has loaded, or - if the problem is the xsiframe linker - 
try another linker.


Please note that I've changed totally the pom.xml and copied configuration 
from one of mines: in particular I have added a configuration for 
maven-jetty-plugin, 
so to try it out you need can execute the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/cristcost/jspoc.git
cd jspoc
mvn clean install
mvn jetty:run


After this you should be able to open your browser 
at http://localhost:8888/ and you should see the alert popup (but 3 seconds 
after the page load!)

Hope this is helpful,

Cristiano


PS. I'm using gwt 2.8.0-SNAPSHOT and also gwt-maven-plugin 2.8.0-SNAPSHOT 
that I have compiled personally, so I don't have added the repo on the 
pom.xml,
you should re-add it from your pom.xml or compile the two by yourself. The 
gwt-maven-plugin 2.8.0-SNAPSHOT is available at 
https://github.com/gwt-maven-plugin/gwt-maven-plugin and I compile it 
skipping the tests with

 mvn clean install -DskipTests
