Re: Does GWT work in Snow Leopard?
Thanks Sumit. That's a great news.
For those of you who can't wait for the official patch release, I've
rebuilt the gwt-dev-mac.jar file from a checkout of the 1.7.0 tag.
I've made a very minor edit to the BootStrapPlatform.java file (diff
shown below) to check for 32-bit-ness rather than 1.5-ness. In order
to use this on Snow Leopard with 1.6 simply add the -d32 option to
your java command line to use the 32-bit version of the jvm. Note that
since this is a temporary work around and a convenience for building
your own 1.7.0 patch I'm only going to keep the link active until the
official GWT patch is out. Let me know if anyone runs into any
problems.

Re: Does GWT work in Snow Leopard?
Hi Jim, All I was saying is that you seem to make this whole hacking system directories way scarier than it is. I've changed things multiple times over the years in system directories sometimes following Apple's own advices. This particular instance is a completely harmless copy. Anyway, don't run snow leopard if you don't want to. But until a proper fix is out, I much prefer (and some other people too I'm sure) giving GWT the JDK 1.5 it expects rather than changing all my scripts and eclipse projects to hack the gwt installation. Regards, Pascal On 8 sep, 22:30, Jim Douglas jdoug...@basis.com wrote: Hi Pascal, If hacking system directories seems like an acceptable approach for you, it's your system and your choice. My concern is that GWT developers who come here looking for advice about getting GWT running in Snow Leopard shouldn't be told that the correct solution is to hack their operating system in ways that aren't supported or approved by Apple. As a general rule, it's rarely a good idea to advise anyone that the fix for a problem is to hack around in system directories. It's especially bad advice when it's not necessary. There's nothing compelling about Snow Leopard that makes it urgent for anyone to install it right this second. I'm more than happy to leave it sitting here in the shrink wrap until I'm sure that I can install it and get back to work without any disruptions. But if someone feels the need to install it (or installed it without realizing it would break GWT), there are other ways to get GWT running again that don't involve hacking in Apple's JVM directories.

Re: Does GWT work in Snow Leopard?
I noticed that it should be possible for Google to release a quick patch of GWT 1.6.x that should allow users to run the legacy hosted mode under a Java 1.6 VM now. GWT's hosted mode, on the Mac, does an explicit check to ensure that Java 1.5 is being used. This check only existed because under Leopard, Java 1.5 is the only 32-bit JVM that was available. (I believe 1.6 was 64-bit only). I install Snow Leopard today, and it appears that while it only has Java 1.6, it appears to have both a 64-bit mode and a 32-bit mode. (Open /Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences.app, and under the General tab you can see both of these modes.) So I think it should be possible to simply remove the explicit check that GWT does for Java 1.5.I have never built GWT from source, but I think I may try. Has anybody else attempted this? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Does GWT work in Snow Leopard?
Just to clarify: Have you tested GWT (including hosted mode) in Snow Leopard, and found it to work? Snow Leopard *does not* ship with any version of Java 5: http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/releasenotes/Java/JavaSnowLeopardRN/Introduction/Introduction.html Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Mac OS X 10.6 contains an Apple-provided Java SE 6 version of 1.6.0_15 for both 32 and 64-bit Intel architectures.

Re: Does GWT work in Snow Leopard?
I tried Soylatte 32 bit Java 6 for Mac http://www.mail-archive.com/google-web-toolkit@googlegroups.com/msg10100.html It failed because GWT won't start hosted mode if you run Java 6 on OS X --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.
