Hi Allyn: Thanks for the report. It seems to be that the new forward compatibility feature in the install-template.rdf is not backward compatible (the irony) in FF3.6 and that version only.
I disabled the strict check that would fix it. Currently in review: http://gwt-code-reviews.appspot.com/1642803/ As far as I understand that part is not necessary. It might be if binary extensions become forward compatible by default (not likely anyways). At that point I might have to break 3.6 and you might have to use a special xpi for 3.6. I'll try to file a bug to Mozilla people, I am not sure how willing they are to going back to fix a bug in 3.6. -Alan On Fri, Feb 10, 2012 at 12:01 AM, Alan Leung <[email protected]> wrote: > I am out of office at the moment and can't do much until Monday. > > You can download an older build from SVN to get around the problem: > > > http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/source/browse/trunk/plugins/xpcom/prebuilt/gwt-dev-plugin.xpi?r=10837 > > -Alan > > > On Thu, Feb 9, 2012 at 11:22 AM, Allyn <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Up until yesterday I was using the GWT Developer Plugin for Firefox >> 3.6 without issue.
