Seeing SmartGWT errors in browser

[lgorlin]

Hi,

I'm seeing the following legitimate errror when running in the Eclipse enviromment. It fails with a Null Pointer Exception.

I'm not concerned with the error. Instead, I'm wondering if there's a way to see this type of error when running in production under tomcat. There's no indication in the log that something went wrong and I've looked at the SmartClient console and have not been able to find it there either. Instead, the process simply fails with no indication anywhere that something went wrong.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

[Isomorphic]

When your application is running in production, it will be in compiled mode, not hosted mode as you're showing. Unless there's a bug in core GWT, any JavaScript error like this will be shown in the Developer Console and/or in the error console of the specific browser being used.
