Compile Error - RequestFactory not found in project sources or resources

[otth2oskier]

I get the following message when I do a Maven compile of my project. I
suspect it is looking for a gwt.xml file for RequestFactory somewhere
but i snot finding it. I am not sure what dependencies I am missing.

Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:gwt-maven-plugin:
2.4.0:compile (default) on project GWTPrototype: GWT Module
com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory.RequestFactory not found in
project sources or resources.

my Project gwt.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE module PUBLIC "-//Google Inc.//DTD Google Web Toolkit 2.4.0//
EN" "http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/tags/2.4.0/distro-

gwt-servlet contains the classes from requestfactory-server, so you don't need that one (or gwt-servlet, depends if you use something else than RequestFactory on the server-side or not).

 

                <dependency>
                        <groupId>com.google.web.bindery</groupId>
                        <artifactId>requestfactory-server</artifactId>
                        <version>2.4.0</version>
                        <classifier>sources</classifier>
                </dependency>

You don't need it (particularly if you keep the default <scope>!)

 

        </dependencies>

Where's gwt-user?

Add it with <scope>provided</scope> so as to not deploy it into your WAR.

Maven plugin configuration:


                        <plugin>
                                <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                                <artifactId>gwt-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                                <version>2.4.0</version>

Latest version is 2.4.0-1.

 

                                <executions>
                                        <execution>
                                                <goals>
                                                        <goal>compile</goal>
                                                        <goal>test</goal>
                                                </goals>
                                        </execution>
                                </executions>
                                <configuration>
                                        <runTarget>index.html</runTarget>
                                        <module>com.avaya.gwtproto.GWTPrototype</module>
                                        <compileSourcesArtifacts>
                                                <compileSourcesArtifact>com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory</
compileSourcesArtifact>
                                        </compileSourcesArtifacts>

Remove the compileSourcesArtifacts (plus: the value you give here is not an artifact's identifier; see the very end of http://mojo.codehaus.org/gwt-maven-plugin/user-guide/project.html)

Thanks. That did the trick.
