    SmartGWT-Extensions

    I've created a 'Hello World!' Creator that will help people getting started by creating all files required for a SmartGWT 'Hello World!' Application using Maven and the gwt-maven plugin by codehaus. After filling out a form you will be offered a ZIP-archive for download that can be imported in Eclipse, Netbeans or the IDE of your choice:

    Before checking in the code I wanted to ask if I can change the pom.xml for SmartGWT-Extensions:

    - use GWT 1.7.0 instead of 1.5.3
    - use gwt-maven plugin by codehaus (version 1.1)
    - use 'war'- instead of 'jar'-deployment

    If you're involved in SmartGWT-Extensions and have any objections, please let me know ...

    My vote is yes! It's a great idea and will be very useful.

          Thanks for your feedback.

          I'll add the new classes as soon as I get home from work (which will be in about 4-5 hours).

          In the next few days/weeks I'll add more features to the creator:

          - JPA configuration ( hibernate3 and gilead )
          - configuration for offline javadoc generation
          - simple I18N example
          - simple RPC example
          - simple JUnit Test(s)

          What else ?

            It'll be a bigger change than I would have expected. I need to refactor quite a bit to properly separate the extension modules from one another. If you inherit from extension A you don't want to have all of extension Bs resources in your webapp. I'll add one EntryPoint for inheritance and one with a simple example for each extension. Furthermore an extension called 'Showcase' that can be a starting point for an extension showcase.

            I'll do a commit and then bump up the maven artifact version in the next 2-3 days.

              Perhaps I am missing something but... Is this not the sort of thing that maven-archetype-plugin should be used for?

              http://maven.apache.org/plugins/mave...gin/usage.html

              Would that not be a more simpler solution?

                I did a first commit and deployed the resulting WAR to the repository server:

                That would be nice, indeed. Can you provide a tutorial or a ready-to-use archetype, already?

                  Unfortunately, I have little time to contribute to the project these days and have not been doing much gwt/smartgwt development :-(

                  When I get back to it I will see what I can do. Thanks.
