I just found out GWT Designer is now free from Google and am taking another look at GWT.
On Eclipse 3.5 Galileo, I've installed via Install New Software, GWT Plugin (Plugin; SDK's), and GWT Designer (GWT Designer; GWT Designer Editor; Infrastructure) -- all the items. Following the GWT Designer Quick Start http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/tools/gwtdesigner/quick_start.html I just want to deploy the "Click me!" project generated from the wizard to a regular Apache Web Server -- not to a Java Web Application Server. As I understand, I can use any server back end, and this particular "hello world" type project does not need a back end anyway. Do I just copy the "war" directory to my web server and launch ImageViewer.html? Is this an expanded "web application archive"? I suppose I need to "Compile GWT Aplication" which added com.mycompany.project.ImageViewer to the /war directory because it did not work without it. With com.mycompany.project.ImageViewer, it works when I point my browser to the file, I didn't host it on an actual web server. It seems a bit large for "hello world", 3.2 MB, but it did say, "Compiling 6 permutations", which I assume is for 6 browser quirk permutations, which I now benefit from not having to worry about? Before all this, I noticed I'm missing right-click on MyProject | Google Web Toolkit | Deploy module http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/tools/gwtdesigner/features/gwt/module_deployment.html Need I be concerned? I only have GWT module, GWT library, and GWT remote service in that menu. My Eclipse is running on a Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and the Finish button was intermittently grayed out while trying to accept the agreements to install the software. I intend to get some AJAX going and I'm not sure if I'll use a Java Web Application Server (I'm afraid of Oracle). Am I having any false starts here? Anything I'll need to worry about down the road?
