Re: GWT compile fails with default Maven directory structure

When you use Maven and Eclipse, you "import a Maven project" (ou create one from within Eclipse), and the GPE detects the use of the gwt-maven-plugin and auto-configures itself, using the GWT dependencies from your Maven project rather than a "GWT SDK" (so you can really use any GWT version that's available in the Central Repository, whether it's available as an "Eclipse plugin" or not is irrelevant).

I like launching DevMode using the GPE even when using Maven, because it's simpler and more integrated to Eclipse.

Sounds like a bug or misconfiguration of the GPE. Is the project a "Maven project" in Eclipse? There might be some hard-coded paths in the GPE (because of limitations of Eclipse) that are only triggered in one or the other "mode" (Maven vs. "simple" Eclipse project). E.g. "/test" being excluded from the GWT Compiler and DevMode classpath in "simple" projects, and the test sources (defaulting to "src/test/java" and "src/test/resources"), as declared in your Maven POM, in Maven projects.

Also, this being a GPE issue, you might have better luck in the dedicated Google Group <https://groups.google.com/d/forum/google-plugin-eclipse> or on StackOverflow.

 

It was created as a Google -> Web Application Project. I think you have it here, it seems that when the source folder base name is 'test', it's excluded from the GWT Compiler, but that's not the case for the default Maven style directory structure.

Just as a general question, do you keep the GPE installed when you use Maven? Where I'm heading is that maybe I only need GPE for the UiBinder auto-completion and editor features. Compiling, DevMode and testing can all be handled with Maven. GPE doesn't seem to keep up with GWT releases anyway.

Thanks for the help...
