It doesn't do that for me. How are you telling GWT about the client libraries? What I do is to put the client jars in /lib in my project and then add them to the build path. Everything builds happily and they're not copied to the war directory. The only jars I put in war/WEB-INF/lib are the ones that the server is going to use. I've never seen GWT copy stuff automatically. Note, though, that if you call any function in your client jars *from the server*, then the server will need to access them. I don't know what happens in this case --- it's never come up for me. It's conceivable that this is what's happening with you, and GWT is copying them because it thinks they're needed. -- ┌─── dg@cowlark.com ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ │ "They laughed at Newton.
