GWT with a non-java server

[Traktor Toni]

Hi guys, I'm new to GWT and pretty confused on how to include it into my workflow. I just ran the first sample tutorial. So I understand how the whole deal works with the embedded jetty server. So far so good. But naturally I have my own non-java server, and I want to use that one to respond to all requests, ajax etc. How do I do that, as I understand it, I can't have two applications listen on the same port?

I'm sure this is a very common problem.

That is a pretty broad question. What is your non-java server? What protocols does it support? "Ajax etc" is not a communications protocol.

My application is served by CouchDB (as what they call a "couchapp")
and also communicates back to the CouchDB server for back-end
persistence and certain queries. You could easily serve a GWT
application with a Node.js server too. You can serve as many
applications as you want from a single port as long as you have unique
URLs for everything the server provides.

Good luck and welcome to GWT.

We've been using GWT with non-java servers (SAP and AS/400):
