GWT-RPC no, RequestFactory yes. GWT-RPC services work only with a GWT client, but the newer RequestFactory has been designed to support other clients such as Android. You need requestfactory-client.jar (from the GWT distro) on your classpath. See this presentation from this year's I/O: http://www.google.com/events/io/2011/sessions/android-app-engine-a-developer-s-dream-combination.html
If you just want a REST interface, however, you might want to look at resty-gwt on github, which makes it easy to consume REST services from a GWT client. /dmc On Thu, Jul 21, 2011 at 1:55 PM, fchas <charlesford...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'd like to understand if or how GWT accepts external RPCs.
