One correction: When launching web apps, we use DevMode if the SDK supports it and HostedMode otherwise. 2009/12/1 Miguel Méndez > That is right, at the time that the project is GWT-enabled it checks for > the existence of a war/WEB-INF/web.xml.

Re: [gwt-contrib] GPE 2.0-RC2 and GWTShell
That is right, at the time that the project is GWT-enabled it checks for the existence of a war/WEB-INF/web.xml. If that exists it will think that it is dealing with a war-style project and then it will use the HostedMode if it is available or DevMode when launching the application. With that version of the plugin, if you have a war/WEB-INF/web.xml file in your project, then you can go to the project properties, and disable gwt for the project apply the changes, go back in and re-enable GWT.That should make it think that it is dealing with a war layout project and it won't use GWTShell. There are a few problems with this heuristic that we need to revisit post 1.2/2.0.

Re: [gwt-contrib] GPE 2.0-RC2 and GWTShell
Ahh - there's a webAppNature in .project that gets set when you enable GWT. I disabled GWT support, re-added it and now the .project has a "com.google.gdt.eclipse.core.webAppNature". This seems to be the trigger for enabling DevMode vs. GWTShell. Thanks, Matt.

Re: [gwt-contrib] GPE 2.0-RC2 and GWTShell
@Miguel: I've hit this before when upgrading projects, and I keep forgetting what the trick was. I seem to recall the plugin was making the project layout determination at the time the GWT nature is added, but I'm not 100% certain.

[gwt-contrib] GPE 2.0-RC2 and GWTShell
Hey all, I installed the GPE 2.0-RC2 build (after cleaning out the old one) and I'm running into some issues. The plugin thinks that we're using the old-style layout, so it's attempting to launch GWTShell which won't initialize a local Jetty w/war.xml. I've worked around it by creating a local copy of GWTShell that delegates to DevMode, but I'd like to figure out why it's using the wrong launch target. What is the heuristic for determining whether a project uses the war layout vs. the GWTShell layout? Thanks, Matt. -- http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors
