I've been fighting with this issue for 3 days and I guess this forum
is my last resort. I ran out of ideas why it doesn't work :( I'm using
GWT 2.4.0 and JDK 1.6.

I was going through this http://goo.gl/mmFuQ tutorial and got stuck
with crashing GWT app. The app crashes if I mention
com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory.shared.RequestContext interface
in my client code. I'm not even using it. I just have unused method
that takes RequestContext as parameter. I tried referencing
RequestFactory - same exception. So I suspect I'm missing something
related to RequestFactory package. I added -logLevel DEBUG to GWT
compiler and here is what I have:

-----------

Full log is available here: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=46aiBLME

Here is my GWT XML file:
-----------
<!DOCTYPE module PUBLIC "-//Google Inc.//DTD Google Web Toolkit 2.0//
EN" "http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/releases/2.0/distro-
source/core/src/gwt-module.dtd">
<module rename-to="courierApp">
<inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.User'/>
<inherits
name="com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory.RequestFactory"/>

<source path="client"/>

<entry-point class='com.vsezavtra.courierApp.client.courierApp'/>
</module>
-----------

Main entry-point class:
-----------
package com.vsezavtra.courierApp.client;

import com.google.gwt.core.client.EntryPoint;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.RootLayoutPanel;

public class courierApp implements EntryPoint
{
public void onModuleLoad()
{
RootLayoutPanel.get().add(new ManagerShell());
}
}
-----------

Bindable UI class
-----------
package com.vsezavtra.courierApp.client;

import com.google.gwt.core.client.GWT;
import com.google.gwt.uibinder.client.UiBinder;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.Composite;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.Widget;
import com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory.shared.RequestContext;

public class ManagerShell extends Composite
{
interface ManagerShellUiBinder extends UiBinder<Widget,
ManagerShell>
{
}

private static ManagerShellUiBinder uiBinder =
GWT.create(ManagerShellUiBinder.class);

public ManagerShell()
{
initWidget(uiBinder.createAndBindUi(this));
}
// if I remove this method everything works :(
public void SetTest(RequestContext test) {}
}
-----------

and corresponding XML file
-----------
<ui:UiBinder xmlns:ui='urn:ui:com.google.gwt.uibinder'
xmlns:g='urn:import:com.google.gwt.user.client.ui'>
<g:VerticalPanel>
<g:HTMLPanel>
Test!
</g:HTMLPanel>
<g:HTMLPanel>
Test2!
</g:HTMLPanel>
</g:VerticalPanel>
</ui:UiBinder>
-----------


and finally my web.xml file has only root "web-app" element because I
have no server-side part (yet).

I'm using IntelliJ IDEA 10.5.2 to debug the app.

Please let me know if you have any additional question. I really don't
know what else I can do :(

I have the same problem with GWT 2.5 and Oracle JDK 7 ... did you ever resolve the issue?  The weird part is that this isn't my first RF-based project, yet I didn't run into this issue with the other projects.

Thanks

Are validation-api and validation-api-src on your classpath?

I thought they were ... I'm using Maven and didn't notice they were only in the test scope.  Problem solved (and with the same solution ruslan got from StackOverflow).

Thanks!
