Tried the simple
https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/getting_started in Safari
5.1.4 and Firefox 11.0 on OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.8 using Eclipse Indigo
Classic 3.7.2.

Both tell me: Development Mode requires the Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin

How do I get "Production Mode"?

Maybe my problem is that I think "Debug As" means "Development Mode
run" and "Run As" means "Production Mode run"?

This is a brand new install of Indigo and GWT. Although I installed:
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/d2gwt/latest/3.7 expecting the full
version rather than the lightweight version of GWT Designer; and
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7 selecting only the SDK (no
AppEngine) and the Plugin -- ALTHOUGH I STILL SEE AppEngine files!

Regards.

First, you might want to ask in the https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/google-plugin-eclipse group for questions related to the Google Plugin for Eclipse.

That's the "GWT Compile" menu item (with the red toolbox icon). You'll find it either in the Google button-menu in the toolbar (blue circle with a blank "g" in it) or when right-clicking on your project within the "Google" submenu.

Yes. Both actually mean "DevMode", "Debug As" means you attach a Java debugger to your code so you can add breakpoints, etc. (just like you'd "Run" or "Debug" a Java application).

Didn't even know there was one.
