[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-16334) GWT WAR directory is not set properly in Eclipse Google (GWT) plug-in

[Fred Bricon (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16334?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12934479#comment-12934479 ] 

Fred Bricon commented on JBIDE-16334:
-------------------------------------

>From what I see in the current com.google.gdt.eclipse.maven.e37_3.4.2.v201310081834-rel-r43.jar, src/main/webapp is hardcoded when calling WebAppProjectProperties.setWarSrcDir.

In their latest code (not currently public), they compute the directory from the <warSourceDirectory> value from org.codehaus.mojo:gwt-maven-plugin configuration.

I don't know if/when current GPE dev builds will be available.

Worst case scenario, we backport their fix to our own gwt configurator.

> Hello,
> I use Eclipse Kepler, m2e 1.2, m2e-wtp 1.0.1, Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.4.2 and JBoss Maven GWT Configurator 1.5.4.
> My project uses not default warSourceDirectory in Maven pom.xml (<warSourceDirectory>$\{basedir\}/WebContent</warSourceDirectory>).
> The problem is that after each Maven -> Update Project action, GWT WAR directory in Eclipse (Project -> context menu -> Google -> Web Toolkit Settings -> Web Application -> WAR directory) is set to default Maven value "src/main/webapp" and not to the value of warSourceDirectory from pom.xml.
> It seems that WAR Directory value is read from file <ECLIPSE_PROJECT>/.settings/com.google.gdt.eclipse.core.prefs, property *warSrcDir*. This file has also another property, *lastWarOutDir* which tells Google GWT Plugin where to compile the GWT code (this issue was solved in JBIDE-11224)
> Current content of com.google.gdt.eclipse.core.prefs after Maven -> Update Project: 
> {code}lastWarOutDir=/applicationserver/WebContent
> warSrcDir=src/main/webapp{code}
> So, the question is, is it possible to set value of warSrcDir to the same value as lastWarOutDir so that Eclipse does not show error "WAR source directory /applicationserver/src/main/webapp is missing" after each update?
