Ignoring unresolvable annotation type

[randasin]

I have one annotation and one object.

com.example.model.shared.MyAnnotation
com.example.model.shared.MyObject

MyObject is declared with MyAnnotation:

@MyAnnotation
public class MyObject {
...
}

When I compile, I am getting this warning

[java] Resolving com.example.model.shared.MyObject
[java] Found type 'com.example.model.shared.MyObject'
[java] [WARN] Ignoring unresolvable annotation type
com.example.model.shared.MyAnnotation

The compilation still succeeded, but I wonder what side effects are
there? How do I resolve this warning?

As you know, GWT is not pure Java, so you can´t use some things.

One way to solve these problem is including a library for reflection (see gwt-ent in google).

I don't plan to use or check the annotation in GWT context so I am ok
if GWT ignores it. MyObject is still compiled and I can use it in
Async requests, right?

The reason I have the annotation is the classes are also used in
another web service project, which utilizes the annotation.

Just wondered if there is way to get rid of the warning.

with this libray you solve this problem, in my POJO´s i put some annotations (for other reasons) and I haven´t problems.

Try it, and tell us.

A late answer (I just had the problem myself):

To get rid of the warning, you have to make sure that the classpath for running com.google.gwt.dev.Compiler also contains

the compiled annotations (corresponding .class file)
