Here is what I did and it worked...
- I created a server directory as sibling to client directory
src/main/java/com/acme/server
src/main/java/com/acme/client
- I added dependencies to my server side code which I needed to implement
my REST service
- I updated my web.xml file to add my custom SpringServlet (does not
extends GWT RemoteServiceServlet)
<servlet>
<servlet-name>REST Interface</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.acme.RESTServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>REST Interface</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/rest/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
- Made sure to not add that (non- GWT RemoteServiceServlet) servlet to my
Application.gwt.xml module descriptor file.
I learned the hard way that you only list GWT RemoteServiceServlet
extensions here.
- When I run my app in the GWT Shell I can access the servlet at:
http://localhost:8888/rest/xxx
The servlet can be accessed within the client code at a relative URL
like:
String urlPath = GWT.getModuleBaseURL() + "../rest/xxx";
Hope this helps others in my situation.
