SmartGWT in a plugin Jar?

[evanross]

I'm developing an application which allows dynamic loading of plugins as external jars.

I want the ability for these jars to provide their own canvas as a web UI. When the plugin is loaded it would tell the main app, "Here's my name and here's my UI canvas..." or some such.

Can this be done with SmartGWT? Or should I go back to some simpler JS based UI (JQuery?)

Apparently the ViewLoader is the trick to having an external GWT source, but I haven't gotten it working properly yet.
I can load simple .js files but not the xxx.nocache.js file.
Maybe it's my .war structure... who knows... there isn't much to go on.
