This is just for closure. Yes, I was using the JAR file on the client-side. So to use your own JAR file it must include both .java and .class files. I rebuilt the jar file to meet these conditions and added (inside the jar) a module.gwt.xml file which contained the path to the classes I was using in the JAR. The app still couldn't use the JAR because the .java files used JAVA libraries it could not translate into javascript. For your reference, here is another on-going discussion on using external JARs with GWT: http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit/browse_thread/thread/e91cf6274d4ef272#
I hope this helps.
