Re: Compiling only what is needed to run?

Ok, great that GWT automatically removes dead code.

I invoke the compiler using the maven plugin so I assume it is a production compile (right?).

But this simple code fails on compilation:

public class MyEntryPoint implements EntryPoint {

    @Override
    public void onModuleLoad() {
        methodCompileOk();
    }

    public void methodCompileOk() {
        Logger.getLogger("").info("This compiles with GWT");
    }

    public void methodCompileNotOk() {
        // Logger.getAnonymousLogger() is not emulated by GWT so this code doesn't compile with GWT
        Logger.getAnonymousLogger().warning("This doesn't compile with GWT");
    }

}

I'm getting this error: The method getAnonymousLogger() is undefined for the type Logger

even if my code actually doesn't call the second method.

Shouldn't the second method be considered as dead code and automatically removed by GWT?
