Hi all. This is my first message to the group. I'm a contributor on a similar project at j2s.sf.net. Tried GWT some years ago and didn't like it, but now, it has improved a lot. My congrats to the authors! keep the good work.

Now my question, I would like create a simple html site, with no server stuff at all, only text, images and css, in gwt. Is it possible to deploy a gwt app (with no rpc/requestfractory/server at all) as static content in a non servlet support like plain apache?

The gwt app will not use rpc or any server comunication at all, only gwt widgets and themes. So I suppose there is a way of deploying javascript+html+css gwt generated files as static content? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

GWT doesn't require you to make any server calls so while I've never
done something like that there should be no reason that it cannot be
done.

Just compile your app and deploy its host html page + compiled javascript/images to any web server you want.

Thats not a problem at all.

Yes ... my application is being served from CouchDB and there is no
back-end code (since I make XMLHttpRequests directly to CouchDB using
JSON). I've got another small application that works off-line (using
HTML5 Application Caching) and stores all it's data on the user's
computer using LocalStorage (and a bit of SessionStorage for maps that
are built when the application loads).

Welcome to the group and good luck!
