Hi Thomas, I'm not sure I understood your answer. You're saying put I should put the classes I need in "com.company.common.data" (which is in a different project) and then add to my build-path of my "Web" project the "common.jar" and then where is the dummy gwt.xml supposed to be? I just didn't understand what you said about it being in the appropriate package in my "Web" project.
