It is what I'm trying to do, but the install of the GWT SDK samples
directory seems to be missing whatever build and/or configuration files are
required to tell Eclipse that there are Java GWT projects in that folder -
this is what my SDK folder contains:

build.xml
\DynaTable
\DynaTableRf
\Expenses
\LogExample
\Mail
   \src
   \test
   \war
   build.xml
   README.txt
Showcase

The result of trying to use the Import Wizard on the samples directory or
the Mail subdirectory is:

"No projects are found to import"

Do I need to use another utility to process the sample apps directory? (the
build.xml files seem to imply ANT, but that seems a little heavy handed for
importing sample source code)  Perhaps the process for importing in Eclipse
has changed since the last publishing of the sample source code? - but I
haven't yet discovered any alternatives...

I am moderately new to Eclipse, but moderately experienced with coding
platforms.  If I know what direction to take, I'm sure I can make it work.
 This just doesn't seem to adhere to anything I've experienced before.

Thanks for your help.

BTW - From what I have done so far with GWT, it looks to be a fantastic
platform.  Great work.  I'm very much looking forward to using it and GAE in
the near future.
