Hey, So I pulled the latest Galileo Eclipse release, and obtained the GWT plugin from dl.google. The demo helloServer app works without problem, and I have played around with things a bit and it seems fine with the hosted browser and so on.
I wanted to start using the Gears code, and it seems that there is no plugin for this. Why is this the case? Oh well, so I pull the gears gwt stuff, and unpacked it, and dropped the jar files into the dropins folder on my eclipse installation. I create a project called test, and make sure it performs its helloServer ok. On the top of my Test.java file I then add import com.google.gwt.gears.client.Factory; import com.google.gwt.gears.client.database.Database; import com.google.gwt.gears.client.database.DatabaseException; import com.google.gwt.gears.client.database.ResultSet; because I will be using that later. I also add <inherits name='com.google.gwt.gears.Gears'/> to my .gwt.xml file. I reload the live server thing and : "Unable to find 'com/google/gwt/gears/Gears.gwt.xml' on your classpath; could be a typo, or maybe you forgot to include a classpath entry for source?" And it hangs on the web page at the point where it should be making the TextField. I suppose I am not understanding how this dropins folder is meant to behave. Why is it looking for Gears.gwt.xml? There is no such file in the gears.gwt dist. Anyway, struggle onwards, right click on my project, go to Properties, into the Java Build Path, Add External Jars, and stick in the external jar file gwt-gears.jar into the project. So, now the IDE seems a little happier with things. I have a warning there saying I am not using the gwt.Gears stuff, and am including it for no reason but its happy that it knows what gwt gears is now. The live browser thing is a total basket case now. It no longer can even find test.html its giving me a 404 and masses of error messages. Ok.... so.. I run a compile, setting the it to debug level information, and it compiles happily. Note, I have not modified the code really at this point, its still the helloServer stuff I started off with. I just added jar file to the project, modified the xml file, and added a few includes. I'm running gwt-gears-1.2.1, gwt 1.7, my vm with which I run eclipse is java 6 from sun, in Eclipse version Galileo, on Ubuntu Jaunty, on a 64 bit machine, compiling against the 32bit libs as seemingly demanded by gwt.
