This change is nice when the developpement team is cross plaform.

Due to this change you have to update your eclipse classpath.

Hi Sebastien,

Are you suggesting to update the existing classpath to GWT 2.0 classpath manually?

I'm not sure if Google plugin will solve this problem in the next release?

We will fix this in the next release of the plugin.  For now, the Google Eclipse Plugin will only allow you to add GWT release directories that include a file with a name like gwt-dev-windows.jar. You can fool it by sym linking or copying gwt-dev.jar to the appropriate name

According to the announce:

Or simply copy gwt-dev.jar to gwt-dev-windows.jar in gwt install dir.

The problem is resolved by renaming gwt-dev.jar to gwt-dev-windows.jar before configuring the GWT SDK in Eclipse.

It is my fault that I missed the "Known issues" at the bottom of the announcement, I was too excited trying out GWT 2.0

:-P
