I would need the "web" and "gwt" facets. In my test project they look like
this:
<facet type="web" name="Web">
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<deploymentDescriptor name="web.xml"
url="file://$MODULE_DIR$/web/WEB-INF/web.xml" />
</descriptors>
<webroots>
<root url="file://$MODULE_DIR$/web" relative="/" />
</webroots>
</configuration>
</facet>
<facet type="gwt" name="GWT">
<configuration>
<setting name="compilerMaxHeapSize" value="512" />
<setting name="gwtScriptOutputStyle" value="DETAILED" />
<setting name="gwtSdkUrl"
value="file://$MODULE_DIR$/../../gwt-2.5.1" />
<setting name="webFacet" value="Web" />
</configuration>
</facet>
Additionally there's a little bit more configuration needed to make the
project work in the IDE. E.g. the "exploded-war" artifact has to be
configured to also include the output of the "gwt" facet:
<artifact type="exploded-war" name="web:war exploded">
<output-path>$PROJECT_DIR$/out/artifacts/web_war_exploded</output-path>
<root id="root">
<element id="javaee-facet-resources" facet="gwt-test/web/Web" />
<element id="directory" name="WEB-INF">
<element id="directory" name="classes">
<element id="module-output" name="gwt-test" />
</element>
<element id="directory" name="lib">
<element id="file-copy"
path="$PROJECT_DIR$/../../gwt-2.5.1/gwt-servlet.jar" />
</element>
</element>
<element id="gwt-compiler-output" facet="gwt-test/gwt/GWT" />
</root>
</artifact>
So It's not as easy as adding an additional facet.
