css file in gwt.xml

[Meera]

Hi,

I am new to GWT. I am looking at the stockwatcher example in google
gwt tutorial.

I have StockWatcher.css in war folder and I am trying to use this .css
in gwt.xml module file.

For some reason it is not reading the css file from gwt.xml file. If I
refer the file from host page (.html) it works fine.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<module rename-to='stockwatcher'>
<!-- Inherit the core Web Toolkit stuff. -->
<inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.User'/>

<!-- Inherit the default GWT style sheet. You can change -->
<!-- the theme of your GWT application by uncommenting -->
<!-- any one of the following lines. -->

<inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.standard.Standard'>
<!-- <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.chrome.Chrome'/> -->
<!-- <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.dark.Dark'/> -->

<!-- Specify the app entry point class. -->
<entry-point
class='com.google.gwt.sample.stockwatcher.client.StockWatcher'/>

<!-- Specify the application specific style sheet. --
>
<stylesheet src='StockWatcher.css' />

</module>

thank you

I'm in the process of upgrading some GWT 1.5 apps to 2.0 and noticed
the same thing in the tutorial. If you want to reference the css file
in the module xml file instead of the html file, you still need to
create a folder called 'public' in the same directory as your module
xml file and stick your css file in there. Your package will look like
this:

- com.google.gwt.sample.stockwatcher
+ client
+ server
+ shared
- public
|- StockWatcher.css
- StockWatcher.gwt.xml

When you compile or run the app in dev mode the css file will be
copied to the /war/stockwatcher directory with the other generated
files.
