Hallo Rajeev,

Thank you for your answer. I am affraid that I would prefer the exact
opposite - for me deployment and developent are quite different, and
the Hosted Mode is part of the development environment. The deployment
is done seperately by a maven build and has no dependencies on the
development environment exept fo the generation of the eclipse project
configuration by maven. If the hosted mode is started from within
Eclipse, I would have assumed that it uses the run classpath provided
by eclipse as this is would link the dependend projects by default.

I have a typical JEE Application using GWT. We have seperate Ecplise
Projects for each layer (as it is common in JEE), so the Client
including GWT depends on the service project (filtering Hibernate sets
for GWT), the service on the server side businesslayer and the
business layer on the model (also including some GWT).

We now linked the projects using external source folders in the client
project, it works now, but we still need copies of the external
libaries and linking the source folders is not a very good solution.
Linking the other projects via JARs, as it is done in Deplyoment, is
not really a viable solution for development - changes are only
reflected after a build, which is very slow and creates an extra
status with all issues included.

May I ask why you consider it right to reflect deployment rather than
development environoment in Hosted Mode? I guess things are very
different depending on environment, and having the development
enviroment as close to deploment as possible is sure a good thing, but
to do this only for the Hosted Mode does create a gap between the
Hosted Mode and the remaining development process.

kind regards,
Florian
