UPDATE #2: The boys down at SpringRoo passed the buck over to the boys over at Google. See the ticket here. It was upgraded to critical priority as well.
UPDATE: I've logged a bug on the SpringRoo Issue Tracker. It looks like the boys are taking this seriously. They've upgraded the priority from minor to critical. See the issue here.
Hi everyone,
I was able to get GWT to work with SpringRoo following the mini-tutorial on the SpringRoo page here: http://www.springsource.org/roo/start
I then decided to try their other tutorial here: http://static.springsource.org/spring-roo/reference/html/beginning.html
After completing Step 6, I decided to try it out with GWT. I thought it would be as simple as running the gwt setup
command from the Roo shell, but it wasn't. When I ran the project, I noticed that the command would create files (as expected), then start undoing the files it created, and finally end off with an exception: String index out of range: -1
.
Not knowing much about Roo and GWT, I ran the mvn gwt:run
command anyway, just to see if it might work. Well, to no surprise, it didn't.
I found the following JIRA issue for the mvn gwt:run
command, but it didn't work. I'm sure it won't work until the first issue is resolved http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MGWT-57
ADDITION: MGWT-57 says to try mvn clean gwt:run. I did and tried running mvn gwt:run afterward to no avail -- same error message. MGWT-57 also says to move some nodes around though I must admit I have no clue what nodes they are referring to. I did, however, search for gwt-maven-plugin
as well as the node runTarget
as they were in the error message, but they were no where to be found in my pom.xml. I thought that to be strange, and deduced it's probably because of the first issue when running gwt setup
.
I'm having a hard time finding anything for the first issue, running the gwt setup
command in the Roo shell, which is why I'm here.
Any ideas?
I have included the output from the two commands below.
Thanks for the help in advance!
