Hello,

I've been developing apps with GWT for over a decade, and have been tinkering with the GWT internals quite a bit.  I'm hoping to finally start contributing my work to the project.

I use IntelliJ IDEA for all my work (not a fan of Eclipse), and I was wondering if anyone already has working IDEA project files that I could borrow?

I could set it up myself, but it would be nice to not have to start from scratch, with stuff like code styles and module layouts (there are some tricky bits here, such as everything under gwt/user/super/com/google/gwt/emul/, where package names don't correspond to the actual directory tree)

Would appreciate any help I could get from the community!

Thanks,

Alex Epshteyn

It is pretty annoying to setup GWT correctly in IntelliJ :( Quite some time ago I had one working, but in the mean time a bit has changed in terms of emulation packages and libraries.

You can use the old state as a starting point: https://gwt-review.googlesource.com/c/gwt/+/12380 (see Readme before opening the project)

One of the major annoyances in IntelliJ is figuring out a way to handle all these super source excludes in source folders correctly.

You can also set it up from the gradle build script here: https://gwt-review.googlesource.com/c/gwt/+/7984. It is quite outdated but I think with minimal work it might be brought up to date. I have used it in the past with success.

Have you tried importing the Eclipse projects? This is what I did I believe, and didn't remember changing many things afterwards.
