Use SuperDevMode http://www.gwtproject.org/articles/superdevmode.html If you use GWT 2.7, this is now the default (unless you use IDE plugins, in which case you might have to explicitly choose to run with SuperDevMode), and you can run you server-side and client-side code with only one command. With previous versions, you have to launch a servlet container for your server code and the CodeServer tool from the GWT SDK for your client-side code, and use bookmarklets in your browser to turn on SuperDevMode. Hint: if you have "?gwt.codesvr=" in your URL, then you're doing something wrong and still using "classic DevMode". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
