Yes we only compile for one browser and one locale. Also there are various modules and only the modified modules are rebuilt although when working on the common module this still triggers the rebuilding of all the depending modules.
This is obviously slower than modifying the js code in-line in your page of course, but a typical rebuild cycle in development is just a few minutes. -- Wickersheimer Jeremy On Friday 12 March 2010 00:06:22 chris snow wrote: > >From the GWT FAQ > > http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/1.6/FAQ_DebuggingAndCompiling.html#Ca > n_I_speed_up_the_GWT_compiler ?: > > If you are compiling a large application, you may find that compiling to > web mode takes a long time.
