Launching Visual Builder in samples

[RevMen]

Is there any reason I shouldn't be able to launch the visual builder from one of the samples?

I successfully imported the built-in-ds project from smartgwtee-2.5 into Eclipse and it runs with no problem (other than the warnings about it wanting to copy all of the .jars).

Just to confirm, I followed these directions to make sure the sample file had everything set up like it should.

I copied the code from the FAQ to make a Visual Launcher button to the top of the onModuleLoad() method, which of course causes a button to appear above the built-in-ds app.

Clicking the button attempts to launch the visual builder, but only ends up opening a blank browser window at http://127.0.0.1:8888/builtinds/tools/visualBuilder/index.jsp

I don't know what to make of this. Is there a problem with Jetty?

I am having a very similar issue, except that I'm not using a sample project. I have double checked my setup just as RevMen stated they did.

I'm using SmartGWT Power edition 2.5 and I've added the proverbial button to launch the VB console:

vbButton.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {
	         public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
	             com.smartgwtpower.tools.client.SCPOWER.openVisualBuilder();
	         }
	     });

Here is my module descriptor:

<module rename-to='logviewer'>
    <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.User'/>
    <inherits name="com.smartgwt.tools.SmartGwtTools"/>
    <inherits name="com.smartgwtpower.SmartGwtPower"/>
    <inherits name="com.smartgwtpower.tools.Tools"/>   
  <entry-point class='com.fake.logviewer'/>
  <source path='client'/>
  <source path='shared'/>
</module>

Here is my html:

  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="logviewer/html; charset=UTF-8">
    <link type="logviewer/css" rel="stylesheet" href="Test.css">
    <script> var isomorphicDir = "logviewer/sc/"; </script>
    <script type="logviewer/javascript" language="javascript" src="logviewer/test.nocache.js"></script>
    <script type="logviewer/javascript" language="javascript" src="logviewer/sc/DataSourceLoader?dataSource=TEST"></script>  
  </head>

And this is the COMPLETE log when I try to open the Visual Builder:

DEBUG LoadISCTag - isomorphicURI not specified in tag, defaulting to: ../../logviewer/sc/

[RevMen]

I'm having the same problems on another computer. Different projects, slightly different set up, but same error. So it seems like the visual builder and jetty aren't getting along. Anyone have any ideas on things to try?

[Isomorphic]

Just a note that we're looking into this, but it appears to be a Jetty bug. Switching to Tomcat or any other engine will correct it.

[RevMen]

I was able to finally get Tomcat working in Eclipse, and the Visual Builder does run under Tomcat.

That was quite a bit of work. It required converting the project to a Dynamic Web Project, which brakes many things that must be fixed.

[Isomorphic]

This problem was indeed specific to Jetty and the way it handles null HTTPServletRequest parameters. We've fixed it now; nightly builds as of tomorrow (ie, dated August 26 or later) will include the fix

[RevMen]

I grabbed the 8-28 nightly 2.5 Evaluation and repeated the steps I described in the first post. Same result, but different error.

Different problem - either your <inherits> tags are wrong (revisit FAQ to get correct ones) or you may need to manually run a GWT compile before proceeding (Eclipse seems to have failed to do so automatically).

Looks like that did the trick. Thanks!

This is good news, as Jetty is more convenient to use than Tomcat.

I still see the same error with v2.5 EE. I imported samples/built-in-ds and only changed BuiltInDS

        KeyIdentifier vbKey = new KeyIdentifier();
        vbKey.setAltKey(true);
        vbKey.setKeyName("P");
        Page.registerKey(vbKey, new KeyCallback() {
            public void execute(String keyName) {
            	com.smartgwtee.tools.client.SCEE.openVisualBuilder();
            }
        });

May be the Jetty server, (how do I replace it ?) in GWT 2.5 is conflicting. Note that I had set GWT_HOME to ~EclipseInstall~\plugins\com.google.gwt.eclipse.sdkbundle_2.3.0.r37v201106211634\gwt-2.3.0

Get a more recent nightly build.
