GWT 2.0 Eclipse Plugin Not Working

[Hethcox]

Hi,
I'm attempting to get my project working in GWT 2.0 under Eclipse 3.5
on Windows XP. The project was previously running under 1.7.
Everything is working except jetty under Eclipse. (I separately
compile and deploy the app to JBoss and it works fine). When I attempt
to debug the app under Eclipse (Debug As->Web Application) I get
nothing. It just sits there. Sometimes some text appears at startup in
the console, but it disappears immediately. There is no process bound
to the relevant port so I don't think jetty is starting.

I assume I'm supposed to get the same console that appears when you
run DevMode under java. Is that correct? Any thoughts?

Cheers,
John

FWIW I created a new project with 2.0 and it works fine.

Hi John,

When you try to debug the app in Eclipse, what is the debug process command line?  You can find this by right-clicking the java process in the Debug view in the Debug perspective, and selecting Properties.  Also, there might be something useful in your workspace error log (<Eclipse workspace>/.metadata/.log), so if you can send that it may be helpful in diagnosing the problem.

To answer your last question, no, the Google Eclipse Plugin includes an embedded Development Mode log view that is used instead of the standard Java console you'd see if you launched dev mode from the command line.  The embedded view should appear automatically when you debug a Web App project.  However, since you mentioned Jetty does not appear to be starting, I suspect the problem is not with the view.

Let's start by inspecting your debug process args and error log, and go from there.

Thanks Keith,
Here's the debug command line:

"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_16\bin\javaw.exe" -
agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,suspend=y,address=localhost:4615 -
Xmx512m -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252 -classpath "C:\XCAFE\CDM550Frontend

brother] C:\Software Tools\gwt-2.0.0\gwt-dev.jar"

Why don't you check here http://ui-programming.blogspot.com/2009/12/update-your-application-to-gwt-20.html
where you have the most important steps of upgrading a GWT application
to version 2.0 ?

I think it will help you...

It turns out that my classpath was too long. I was in the habit of
just adding all of the JBoss libraries to my path. This was ok under
GWT 1.7.1, but I guess the way GWT 2.0 launches Jetty causes a
problem. I refined the classpath and things are working well.
