Hi Confile,
I worked for a while with the gwt-gradle-plugin and it works pretty fine.
Actually, there were two main points that was annoyed me:
1 - the gwtDev task runs the standard gwt DevMode. It limiting me by
runnig the server side on a Jetty 8 which doesn't support the websocket
(JSR 358).
2 - The sources from the other projects (multimodule with libs) are not
automatically added to the SDM, so we need to relaunch the gradle
gwtSuperDev task to view the changes.
So to solve it, the gwtDev task runs two external java processes; the first
one starts the CodeServer including all sources from all project
dependencies i.e. comile project(":my-lib"), and the other one starts the
webapp on Jetty 9 without extra library in the classpath such as
gwt-dev.jar.
After those two points, I'd love to implement some extra tasks :
- gwtSetup to initialize the project from templates like maven is doing
with archetypes
- extra app containers (Tomcat, WildFly...)
- some packaging tasks to build some native app (webviews) on iOS and
Android
With many perspectives in order to make developpers life simpler.
I hope to light you on the why and what is this plugin.
I still available for any question.
Regards,
