I find myself in the same boat while developing a GWT based webapp. Having used the Maven plugin(s) out there, I believe, they can be improved (not had good user experiences yet!).

I think we should consolidate all efforts towards a GWT plugin. If you have and want to share some useful pieces of code, and add/improvise with new features, I'd say add it to the GWT Maven plugin under Mojo sandbox, so others can use and improve on it.

Thanks,
Rahul

The plugin at codehaus is currently in mojo sandbox. Maybe you could merge
your code with this one to make it more efficient ? Providing support for
the gwt shell would be a nice enhancement, and this plugin could be promoted
out of the sandbox if more developers contribute to make it a Must-have
plugin !

The goal of the Mojo project is to avoid many developers to work on there
side on equivalent plugins. There may be reasons not to merge similar
projects, but there also are many advantages to do, especially to be more
attractive and get more good developers provide new features.

I thought about doing that, but I wasn't sure about adding another plugin
to
do about the same thing.  Should we just let Google maintain the plugin
for
their toolkit?

Since there is already a gwt-maven-plugin in the Mojo sandbox and a
maven-googlewebtoolkit-plugin at Google, do you have a suggestion as to
what
to call my version?

What about submitting your plugin to the Mojo project ?

I have built a version that I use which supports both running the
development shell from Maven and compiling as part of the normal build
process.  I think there are a least two other plugins in Codehaus.

I haven't used the plugins at Codehaus because last time I looked they
did
not support the development shell.  I had not seen the plugin produced
by
Google before, so I have not used it.  One thing the Google plugin does
that
I don't is to build the template project (doesn't seem very useful to
put
a
bunch of configuration in the POM for a one-time event).

I use my plugin on an almost daily basis for development.  If anyone is
interested, I can probably post it somewhere for people to access.

Thanks to google, I've found
http://codehaus.org/~shinobu/gwt-maven-plugin/and
http://code.google.com/p/gwt-maven/

What is the status of supporting GWT compiler in maven builds ?
