webapp files

Open michaelvogt opened this issue 11 years ago • 2 comments

When running my app using this plugin in super dev mode, changes to files in the webapp folder are not copied over to the war folder. Is this something I need to handle myself, or is it something this plugin can configure?

When talking about Super Dev Mode, which "version" do you mean:

  1. Gradle task gwtSuperDev: pre GWT 2.7 Super Dev Mode (Code Server) -> the one with the Bookmarklets
  2. Gradle task gwtDev: GWT 2.7 Dev Mode running Super Dev Mode

If you are talking about 1.: This one has nothing to do with the webapp, as it only delivers the compiled JavaScript, not the whole application. If you are talking about 2.: Changes should be copied on every startup to the "war" directory. If you change any webapp file while the task is running, it won't be copied (and I don't have a solution for this right now).

Yes, it is 2. The files are copied from the webapp folder to the war folder when the application starts up, but not when reloading the page. Would be great when this could be made working somehow.
