Gilles commented on MATH-1406:
------------------------------

Unless I'm missing something, the "ClassCastException" issue can be fixed 
easily: change
{noformat}
try  {
 // block A
} catch (ClassCastException e) {
 // block B
}
{noformat}
where "block A" is trying to cast to "SomeClass", with
{noformat}
if (o instanceof SomeClass)  {
 // block A
} else {
 // block B
}
{noformat}
And, as already noted by Michael, it's better practice.

> official support for compiling on GWT 2.8

> Context: at the moment Apache Commons Math can't be compiled using GWT (to 
> allow it to be made into a JavaScript library for example)
> http://www.gwtproject.org/
> Is there any interest in allowing Apache Commons Math to be officially 
> supported on GWT?
> With GWT 2.8.0 the changes needed aren't too hard to get most of it to compile
