Hi Sri, This wouldn't really work for me as we are using maven and maven has specific standard directory structure. I guess, I could modify the pom.xml to see those additional directories as source directories as well, but all that work in maven that would kinda defeat the purpose for me, i.e., it would now move the "mess" to maven and having to deal with maven over this is not worth it for us at this point.
I just want to know if it's possible to do this with pure GWT solution or not. Anyone know? Thanks, Yaakov.
