just a guess:
I think, that an exception is thrown in this case
if you don't explicitly handle it anywhere, GWT's uncaught-exception
handler will get it
and AFAIK, the default UEH will only write the exception to the hosted
mode console
so maybe this will get you a step further:
set a custom exception handler: GWT.setUncaughtExceptionHandler() that
writes a log message that will be displayed in the firebug console ( I
am using gwt-log for this)
this may at least reveal what kind of exception occurs (if any)
here's what I do (pseudo-code):
when the app starts, I replace the default exception handler with my
own one (but remember the default):
private final UncaughtExceptionHandler
originalUncaughtExceptionHandler;
originalUncaughtExceptionHandler = GWT.getUncaughtExceptionHandler
();
GWT.setUncaughtExceptionHandler(new UncaughtExceptionHandler() {
public void onUncaughtException(Throwable t) {
Log.warn("AppController: Uncaught exception handled: ", t);
/*
* if we cannot handle this exception we pass control to the
original uncaught exception handler in hosted mode
* the exception will be logged to the gwt console. in web mode
the
originalUncaughtExceptionHandler will be null
*/
if (originalUncaughtExceptionHandler != null) {
originalUncaughtExceptionHandler.onUncaughtException(t);
}
}
}
