Hi Ken, I was following that and then as shown in the link there for setting up for eclipse: " 1.Follow the instructions here to set up your eclipse environment. "
I downloaded the readme file from the link. And while following that, Around Line 104 in the file you'll see that it mentions instructions to download GWT core projects. This is where I became hesistant to continue. Also from the instructions in setting up Eclipse: "4 If you not on Windows, you will need to fix the gwt-dev project reference 1. Right click on the new incubator project in the explorer and choose Properties 2. Java Build Path 3. Under the Projects tab, replace gwt-dev-windows as appropriate " Isn't that again talking about using the gwt-dev-windows project and not jar? But if what you say is true and all I need is the GWT Tools section (By section I again presume you are talking about the GWT tools project which is mentioned to be checked out from SVN in the beginning of the Making Incubator Better page), then would it be as simple as 1) Setting the GWT_ROOT (to GWT incubator ) 2) Setting the GWT_TOOLs (to GWT Tools) 3) JDK_HOME And then finally running my ant? Thanks for the patience. Suri On Nov 10, 4:48 pm, "Isaac Truett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I hope I'm not wrong in my observations? > > No, you're absolutely right.
