The maven-gwt-plugin from codehaus is looking quite good at this point. I recommend trying 1.1-SNAPSHOT.
I just reported an issue with running unit tests (which has been fixed in SVN, waiting on a new SNAPSHOT build). With that it does absolutely everything I've expected (on all platforms, without local configuration) and with very minimal setup (add the plugin, add a dependency on gwt-user, done). The one remaining issue is the new build output format (WAR), and how resources are deployed. I'm totally against having GWT compile directly into /src/main/webapp. It's completely against the principles of keeping your source tree clean and putting all artifacts under target. If you stick with traditional maven approach, it means you need to execute war:exploded first before launching hosted mode (and again if you want to change something without restarting the hosted mode). The other approach is stick with src/main/webapp and make sure the clean plugin cleans out all GWT generated files. Again, this is really not the right approach :-( On Apr 16, 8:48 am, Arthur Kalmenson <arthur.k...@gmail.com> wrote: > It would definitely be nice if the Google Eclipse plugin was build > system agnostic, or at least gave you more configuration options. > Maybe we should just file a issue with the Google Eclipse plugin (I > can't find the Google Code project...)? > > -- > Arthur Kalmenson > > On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 4:33 AM, Salvador Diaz <diaz.salva...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > >> * If you enable gwt support on your project, GWT SDK library is > >> automatically added to the project, event if you already manage your > >> dependencies with maven.
