I thought I had this working, and I do, but only in one project. Now I'm 
trying to recreate the magic, and it's not working.

I've an older project that I started running SuperDevMode from a console 
and DevMode from Eclipse. Since I wanted some features of Tomcat, I 
switched to running the app as a Remote Java Application. Debugging works. 
Moreover, when I make a change in a server-only class--like a servlet--the 
change is there on the very next run.

I want to recreate what I've done and document it for the next guy. 
Accordingly I

1) Generate a new project, Foo, using the gwt-maven-plugin archetype.

2) Add pluginManagement for org.eclipse.m2e to my pom.xml so Eclipse won't 
squawk about i18n and import the project (see 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16068127/maven-gwt-2-5-1-setup-issue)

3) Add 

  <add-linker name="xsiframe"/>
  <set-configuration-property name="devModeRedirectEnabled" value="true"/>

to the module file.

4) Run `mvn clean generate-sources gwt:run` from a console.

5) Launch the app in the browser then quit DevMode.

6) Copy target/Foo-1.0-SNAPSHOT to $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/Foo

7) Run `mvn clean generate-sources gwt:run-codeserver` from a console.

8) In Eclipse, create a Debug Remote Java Application on Foo and run it.

9) Open http://localhost:8080/Foo in my browser (Chrome).

10) Turn Dev Mode On. Compile. Project runs.

If I put a breakpoint in my servlet (GreetingServiceImpl), it breaks in the 
Eclipse debugger.

11) Disconnect from Tomcat (in Eclipse). Modify GreetingServiceImpl.java. 
Restart the remote debug in Eclipse.

12) In the browser, turn Dev Mode Off, turn Dev Mode On, and Compile

When I call the RPC function, the change made in Step #11 does NOT take 
effect, though I can see those changes while stepping 
through GreetingServiceImpl in the Eclipse debugger.


What could I be missing? As I said, in my older project (which has gone 
through some evolution from 2.5.1 to 2.6.0, from DevMode to SuperDevMode 
and -noserver, from Java 1.5 to 1.6 to 1.7, etc.) server-side changes show 
on the next run. What might be missing from a archetype generated project 
and/or from my Eclipse configuration that would cause server-side change to 
NOT take effect in Foo when they do elsewhere?
