Re: Building a GWT project in Eclipse 2019-03+ with Java 11.

We have a large and complex Eclipse project that uses the GWT SDK for the GWT client stuff, and doesn't use Maven in any way at all. How would we go about evolving that away from the GWT SDK? I know effectively nothing about Maven. Is there some sort of instruction list somewhere to convert an existing project, as opposed to creating a new project from scratch?

I'm staring at this, and I don't know what to make of it:

It seems to assume I already know what Maven is, I already have a Maven project, I understand all of this obscure terminology, and I know how to edit various configuration files...and I'm just trying to find a page that says "How to install this thing."

I don't know what that means. As far as I've ever known, developing a GWT application in Eclipse implies installing the GWT Plugin for Eclipse and picking a GWT SDK.


Nope.
Install the GWT Eclipse Plugin (https://gwt-plugins.github.io/documentation/gwt-eclipse-plugin/Download.html; note that the SDKs are optional).
You're all set; the plugin will use the GWT dependencies from the Maven project.
