I'm currently working on a piece of software that's still using GWT
2.0.4, and is not (yet) compatible with 2.2. I use eclipse, and the
GWT plugin, and recently updated the plugin to GWT2.2, but since it's
not working yet I'd like to switch back to GWT plugin 2.0.4; is this
possible?

This is what I would do..
Install sdks in a separate directory say <DRIVE>/gwt-sdks/2.0 , 2.1,
1.7 etc

In Eclipse under Preferences, just choose which one you want to be
active/default. Same goes for app engine
Now under project properties, chose the desired sdk in "Use Specific
SDK"

If you reference versioned gwt jars in your project, then you better
mavenize it if possible and change dependency as need be

best

For those who are looking for it, you can download old version of gwt
at:

http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/versions.html

I just unpacked it in the directory my_eclipse_dir/plugin/, then go to
eclipse, edit and changed my "gwt sdk" path under project properties
and make it pointing to the new directory created when I unpacked.

This works fine for me.
