Re: Use of existing java applications/ jars in a GWT project

HI Jens
   Thanks for the reply
   - How do we define GWT modules externally , for classes in third party jars
Sorry if this is pretty basic

- And if the source code is needed by GWT compiler, if we have third party jars , with no source code, then they cannot be used as part of the GWT app
  Would that be a correct statement

Thanks
Ani

Hi
  I have an application based on eclipse GEF, and am trying to build one based on GWT which has the same functionality.
I am a new user , so please excuse me if this is a very basic question
   We have a a lot of existing java code, and libraries which need to be used.
It does appears that the GWT compiler does look for a module definition , if any code from those libraries can be used.
My question is
  - Would i need to change the existing jars, to add a module definition to each of them ?
  - DOes the GWT compiler need the actual source code too for each of these.
   If that is indeed the case, it might make the porting of an existing application to GWT difficult.
Any pointers are appreciated

Best Regards
Ani
