Hi Andrew, This is confusing, but the App Engine SDK and the GWT SDKs are separate SDKs (one does not contain the other) and they are added via separate preferences. Trying to add the GWT SDK via the App Engine preferences will fail in the manner that you described.
To clarify, if you want to add a GWT SDK you need to navigate to *Window > Preferences*, or *Eclipse > Preferences* if you are on Mac OS X. Open the * Google* entry in the left pane and select *Web Toolkit.* On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 10:57 AM, AndrewG <andrew.g...@rcrt.co.uk> wrote: > > Miguel, > > I have now tried this - but not had any luck making it work as yet. > > I have downloaded and unzipped 'gwt-windows-1.6.4' - then put it into > eclipse/plugins. > > If I try to 'Add App Engine SDK' - it just says: "Failed to Initialise > App Engine SDK at ...../gwt-windows-1.6.4" - don't know why. > > One obvious thing - don't know if its significant - if you look inside > the dirs for the other gwt versions installed - they have a number of > things, like: appengine-sdk-plugin.jar, META-INF directory, etc as > well as an appengine-java-sdk-xxx directory, but the newly downloaded/ > unzipped directory only contains a 'gwt-windows-1.6.4' sub-directory. > > Andrew > > > > > -- Miguel --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
