GWT + Entity Bean

[Bálint Kriván]

Hi!

I'm having an issue, and I hope someone can help me, because GWT looks very great.

So I've started to make a very simple application.
I have an EJB package which contains the Session Beans and the Entity Beans.
In the WAR project I've set up the GWT:
I've created an Entry Point and a Service (RPC call) - In the implemented RemoteServiceServlet I can use the Session Beans, which is connected to Entity Beans. So I can make new objects to the database. It works fine.

But I would like to be able to retrieve objects as well, so I've created a retrieve call aswell to this Service, and the returned value should be List<hu.krivan.model.Topic> (Topic is my Entity Bean).
But when I want to compile my project, it says that:
[ERROR] Errors in 'file:/home/balint/NetBeansProjects/GWTForum/GWTForum-war/src/java/hu/krivan/client/service/TopicService.java'
[ERROR] Line 20: No source code is available for type hu.krivan.model.Topic; did you forget to inherit a required module?

(This is in Line 20:
public List<Topic> retrieveTopics();
)

TopicService is my interface which implements RemoteService. How can I use my List<Topic> in the UI (so I would like to build a FlexTable based on these Topic objects.)

Very thanks for your help!

Regards,

Hi

GWT needs to be able to see the source of your entities so you need to
include them in the GWT compile. To do this create a module xml file
in the server package that contains a <src ="entityDir"> statement
where entityDir is your directory containing the entity classes. Then
include this module in your main module.
