Re: remove annotation in gwt compiler process ?

If your problem is that the annotations is making your GWT module compilation fail, maybe you should try to add your annotations to the GWT compilation so you don't need to "remove them". Substituting an annotation with an dummy annotation makes no senses at all XD, are more or less "value classes", is like substituting a string with a dummy string... but, sometimes the class might has dependencies to a enums or a Class<T> where the enum or the T is incompatible, in this situation just add a super source with the dummy annotation (pretty weird) or a GwtIncompatible in the annotation or annotation method. Frequently you just need to create a GWT module pointing to the annotation package, for example, we did that for jackson adding a module like this:

file://src/com/fasterxml/jackson/annotation/Jackson.gwt.xml

<module>
    <source path="">
        <exclude name="**/JsonAutoDetect*"/>
        <exclude name="**/JsonFormat*"/>
        <exclude name="**/JsonIdentityInfo*"/>
        <exclude name="**/*ObjectId*"/>
    </source>  </module>

I can't see any reason to do that. In case you'd really need to do that, you could use a different classpath, like with any Java application/compilation (note that super-sources won't work, as annotations are -partially- loaded from bytecode, not only source code). Details will depend on how you build your project.
