* 2) each external class used in the app must be explicitly entered with the "inherits" tag in the App.gwt.xml file. * That is incorrect.
If you want to use external classes, this is what you have to do - 1. Create a jar file containing both java source files and the corresponding classes. GWTC needs the *.java files, while Eclipse would need the *.class files. Typical structure of your jar file is - com ------ntm -------------correction ----------------------------Correction.gwt.xml ----------------------------client ----------------------------------------<Java Source files and Class Files> 2. You need to create a gwt.xml file for your module. It need not have a Entry point class, but all other things remain same. 3. Then, in your second module, you put an inherits tag and specify the module name, not the class name. In this case, you will specifiy com.ntm.correction.Correction - because that is where you have the .gwt.xml file --Sri 2009/9/21 thc <[email protected]> > > Hi, I am having difficulty trying to compile to javascript ("ant > build" - web mode) my GWT app with externally-include jar files (that > is, non google, non gwt jar files). > > My understanding of the process for these jar files is that: > > 1) you ensure they are on your classpath (in my case, my eclipse build > path since I use eclipse for IDE). > 2) each external class used in the app must be explicitly entered with > the "inherits" tag in the App.gwt.xml file. > > However, I get the following error for any external class I capture in > the inherits tag in the gwt.xml file: > > [java] Loading inherited module 'ntm.Correction' > [java] [ERROR] Unable to find 'ntm/Correction/gwt.xml' on > your classpath; could be a typo, or maybe you forgot to include a > classpath entry for source? > > [java] [ERROR] Line 15: Unexpected exception while processing > element 'inherits' > [java] com.google.gwt.core.ext.UnableToCompleteException: (see > previous log entries) > > etc.. > > Here is the actual entire gwt.xml file: > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <!DOCTYPE module PUBLIC "-//Google Inc.//DTD Google Web Toolkit .7.0// > EN" "http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/tags/1.7.0/distro- > source/core/src/gwt-module.dtd<http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/tags/1.7.0/distro-%0Asource/core/src/gwt-module.dtd> > "> > <module rename-to='ntmapp'> > <!-- Inherit the core Web Toolkit stuff. --> > <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.User'/> > > <!-- Inherit the default GWT style sheet.
