OK, those are more current clues to how to complete this process. The Cloud Endpoints Frameworks for App Engine <https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/docs/frameworks/java/about-cloud-endpoints-frameworks> page does have different instructions starting with "Generate the OpenApi-spec configuration file and deploy it as described in the Quickstart <https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/docs/frameworks/java/quickstart-frameworks-java> ." as the Quickstart instructions are different from the instructions I used to deploy the Endpoints API backend to App Engine (which works OK with my Android Endpoints client). Also the Quickstart uses Maven, not Gradle. And there's a beta.12 version of the endpoints-framework-tools the Generating a Client Library for Android page says to use, later than beta.7: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/google/endpoints/endpoints-framework-tools/
I will start over using that workflow starting point. I hope this newly revealed way works. These outdated doc pages and processes are a bewildering maze. In the meantime, on the hunch that --------------------------------------------- Cloud Endpoints Frameworks for App Engine Command Line Tool https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/docs/frameworks/java/endpoints_tool "The frameworks command line tool is provided in the SDK: endpoints- framework-tools-2.0.0-beta.7/bin/endpoints-framework-tools." --------------------------------------------- meant by "the SDK" not the google-cloud-sdk[-app-engine-java] SDK, but rather the App Engine SDK for Java https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/java/download I downloaded that and found in it appengine-java-sdk-1.9.48/bin/endpoints.sh which is a wrapper on several tools in that SDK, including what appears to be the actual tool referred to in Cloud Endpoints Frameworks for App Engine Command Line Tool https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/docs/frameworks/java/endpoints_tool as endpoints-framework-tools , as endpoints.sh takes the <command> <options> [class-name] arguments ---------------------------------------------------------------- $ endpoints.sh Command line tool for Google Cloud Endpoints. usage: <endpoints-tool> <command> <options> [args] <command> must be one of: get-discovery-doc get-client-lib help ---------------------------------------------------------------- Also its <options> includes ---------------------------------------------------------------- $ endpoints.sh help get-client-lib get-client-lib Generates a client library Usage: <Endpoints tool> get-client-lib <options> <service class>...

Default: java. ---------------------------------------------------------------- which is consistent with the generate_library docs that indicate "-l [java|gwt|...]" is used to select the target language of the generated code. But it still doesn't work, and gives a pretty cryptic error: ---------------------------------------------------------------- $ endpoints.sh \ get-client-lib \ -l gwt \ -bs gradle \ -w /home/myhome/AndroidStudioProjects/gdx-endpoints/backend/src/main/webapp \ -o ./wrk com.blue_green_group.gdxendpoints.backend.endpointsApi.EndpointsApi Error: com.blue_green_group.gdxendpoints.backend.endpointsApi.EndpointsApi ---------------------------------------------------------------- I get that same error even if I include a classpath flag as documented in endpoints.sh commandline help: ---------------------------------------------------------------- $ endpoints.sh help get-client-lib get-client-lib Generates a client library Usage: <Endpoints tool> get-client-lib <options> <service class>...
