So
What you say is: It is not possible to have a page with:
*** gwtapp + gwtlib + js_export + optimization ***
What is possible to have is either or
1) gwtapp + gwtlib + optimization
or (xor actually)
2) gwtapp + gwtlib + js_export
right?
a) We assume gwtlib has @JsType(isNative=false) types
b) Optimization is used in the broad sense for method and properties
renaming, removal and other optimization steps
Jens, Thomas thanks a lot for the education.
