It works fine for me and has in every version I have ever used.

The current version I am using is either 14.1.5 or  14.1.6

Re: What is best IDE for developing GWT applications?

[Slava Pankov]

I don't know why many people are suggesting IntelliJ for GWT. For example 
code completion in ui.xml files is not working in IntelliJ, and I don't 
understand how to develop UI efficiently without it.

To be hones I never tried IntelliJ with GWT but maybe I'll give it a try 
sometime :)

Is there actually some development going on? Either for Eclipse of IntelliJ 
or are projects like these frozen?

GWT 2.8-SNAPSHOT has broken JSP support in SDM & DM

[Pablo Nussembaum]

  
  
Hi Guys,
After updating to Jetty 9.2 in GWT 2.8 the JSP support is not
working any more during debug (it doesn't matter if you use SDM o
DM).
It seems that since Jetty 9.2[1] jsp support is not enabled by
default and need to enabled when embedding. As a workaround you can
add this snippet[2] to web.xml.
I don't know if I this expected or I should fill a bug.

Project structure in IntelliJ

[Benjamin Tillman]

Maybe I'm just missing something, but I can't find a way to stray from 
IntelliJ's suggested package structure for GWT apps (see this link 
).

For example, if I have an application organised using a standard Maven 
directory layout, I'd like to place my module file (module.gwt.xml) in the 
src/main/resources/com/example/ folder, but this breaks IntelliJ's GWT 
build (the GWT compiler simply reports back it can't find module.gwt.xml on 
the classpath). Including src/main/resources/ as a content root in 
IntelliJ's project structure window doesn't seem to make any difference 
either.

It's the same deal for my GSS files, but in this case it's even more 
annoying because as soon as my GSS files are outside of src/main/java then 
I lose some IDE support for those files too.

I can build with Maven or Gradle no problems, but I'm wondering if it's 
possible to get IntelliJ to do the same. Mostly for the IDE support, but 
just in general would be great.

Cheers,
Ben.

Several GWT modules on one page and RootPanel.get().addDomHandler()

[Rocco De Angelis]

Hi All,

I have a problem with several GWT modules on one page which all try to 
register a keydown handler on the page body element.
The problem seems to be that only one GWT module can call RootPanel.get() 
which will be perform a DOM.setListener() on the body.
The second call of RootPanel.get() from another model will overwrite the 
body.__listener so 
that com.google.gwt.user.client.impl.DOMImpl#getEventListener 
doesn't work anymore for all GWT modules (of course because the connection 
between dom and widget was overwritten)

My current solution is to add all handler for the body element using JSNI 
which is a little bit ugly!
So other / better ideas?

BR
Rocco

Re: What is best IDE for developing GWT applications?

[Rogelio Flores]

@Stefan
You have run configurations for GWT similar to eclipse (with the google 
plugin) but better IMO, with SDM as default and you can still run classic 
DevMode if you want.
You can rename @UiField variables and it will rename all instances in your 
Java file and also on your ui.xml file (or vice versa, if you rename the 
ui:field on your ui.xml).
IntelliJ also comes with a Chrome Browser plugin so your debugging can be 
done on the IDE from the javascript + sourcemaps running on your browser.
There's also code-completion, syntax highlighting on JSNI javascript code 
(not sure if eclipse now has this).
I've imported numerous GWT maven-based projects and they just work and run 
from IntelliJ as soon as I create a run config which takes a few seconds.

These might not sound like super features or way too different from 
eclipse, but consider the fact that I didn't have to get/install any IDE 
plugins and even if I did I don't even remember because installing a plugin 
is a lot simpler too.

You need to have a "default" permutation for Google Bot:

  But how to work around this? It's hard to see the
