Hi!
Were you successful in building out a JAR using spring boot while still
using GWT RPC? I am on the last step of getting the `.gwt.rpc` files in the
right place but I still get serialization errors saying the serialization
policy files are missing.
For the override you did:
@Override
protected SerializationPolicy doGetSerializationPolicy(HttpServletRequest
request, String moduleBaseURL, String strongName) {
return SerializationPolicyLoader.loadFromStream(new
ClassPathResource("classpath:yourLocation/" +
strongName+".gwt.rpc").getInputStream(), null);
}
where in the JAR did you add the gwt.rpc files and how did you access them
from here?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
