Re: Cannot Debug GWT with Eclipse

Hi,

Are we talking about debugging using SDBG plugin, setting breakpoints from the IDE +that kind of thing?

Because if you don't you don't need any reverse proxies for http. I am using it all the time and development machine where the codeserver runs is different from the production server. I am also not using the -launcherDir option. For https support the setup is more involving (and may require some proxies or certificate handling) and I haven't set it up yet.

In pure superdevmode with -style DETAILED I get a javascript that resembles a lot my java code and I use that to set breakpoints in javascript from the browser, Chrome also shows the java sources I think. But even if source maps are not working the generated javascript is easily readable and mappable to your original sources.

I am using ssh reverse proxies when I want to debug other browser/OS combinations with RDP (remote desktop protocol) because in that case there are 3 computers involved

  - developer machine - runs IDE, codeserver - rdp client - shows client desktop

  - client computer - rdp server - runs OS/Browser combo to test

  - production server

Now with the https promotion I need to be able to test/SDM also production https sites and that needs more reading/understanding/work.

Is there a way to debug the GWT application (client and server) just like your plugin allows while running in SuperDevMod while it has been deployed on an application server, e.g. WebSphere with say, localhost:9080/MyApp context root?

As long as the Application server runs on the same host/ip as the SuperDevMode CodeServer it works. Just use -launcherDir to point to your /war output folder. If running the application server on a different host / ip you would need to use a reverse proxy so that calls to localhost/MyApp map to otherIp:9080/MyApp. We use a reverse proxy approach like forever at work to either deploy locally or on a different server, and it works pretty well. But granted its a bit more work to setup.
