Hi i'm trying to access a simple servlet from within GWT (dev mode):

The basic idea is to get the simple response from the servlet and then show it to GWT client side.

I think I'm missing something here or have misconfigured the code, I presume in the RequestBuilder part or in the url-pattern. I'm always getting 404 response.

Can anyone help? Cheers, Xybrek



SayHelloServlet.java

package com.mycompany.server;

import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class SayHelloServlet extends HttpServlet {
          public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
                            HttpServletResponse response)
              throws ServletException, IOException {
            PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
            out.println("Hello!!!");
          }
}


ServletDemo.java

package com.mycompany.client

public class ServletDemo implements EntryPoint {
..
        public void onModuleLoad() {
        ...
                makeServletCall();
        ...

        }
..
   public void makeServletCall() {
        String url = GWT.getHostPageBaseURL() + "sayHello";;
        RequestBuilder builder = new RequestBuilder(RequestBuilder.GET,
                        URL.encode(url));

        try {
                
                builder.sendRequest(null, new RequestCallback(){

                                public void onError(Request request, Throwable 
exception) {
                                        Window.alert("Error ("+ exception +")");
                                }
                                
                                public void onResponseReceived(Request request,
                                                Response response) {
                                        if (200 == response.getStatusCode()) {
                                                Window.alert("the string: "+ 
response.getText());
                                        }
                                        else {
// Handle the error. Can get the status text from response.getStatusText() Window.alert(" Connected with error(maybe): " + response.getText());
                                        }
                                        
                                }});
                        
                } catch (Exception e) {
                        GWT.log(e.toString());
                        Window.alert("Whoosps " + e.toString());
                }
    }
...
}

Here's the web.xml in the war folder:

web.xml

<web-app>
...
  <servlet>
      <servlet-name>sayHelloServlet</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>com.mycompany.server.SayHelloServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>

  <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>sayHelloServlet</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/mycompany/sayHello</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
...
</web-app>
