In general, I really like GWT (Google Web Toolkit) as an Ajax framework. It is especially good if you are already a Java developer, and if your Ajax app wants to seem more like a desktop app than like a regular Web app with small amounts of Ajax support. But one of the painful parts is deploying it on an external server once you are done testing and developing.
Cypal Studio (http://www.cypal.in/studiodocs) is an Eclipse plugin that supposedly eases this pain. It works very easily in regular Eclipse, but for MyEclipse, I haven't been able to get it to work. I saw a post from March by Jonas where he said he got it working in MyEclipse, but the current version of Cypal Studio uses WTP Dynamic Web Projects (and WTP facets) to add in the GWT support. I teach GWT and Ajax courses, and we use MyEclipse in the course, and I don't want to switch to regular Eclipse if I can avoid it.
So, two questions:
1) Has anyone gotten the current version of Cypal working with MyEclipse?
2) Does anyone know how to enable WTP in MyEclipse?
Thanks! |

PS Any GWT-specific support coming in MyEclipse 7?

This is not on the cards at the moment. |

| Just to clarify, MyEclipse uses WTP as well. Even though some of the eclipse plugins are not certified to run with MyEclipse, users have been able to configure and run some of the plugins successfully with MyEclipse. |

I did not realize thiis. How do I make use of WTP, in that case? The Cypal instructions say to either make a WTP dynamic Web project, or to R-click on an existing project, choose Properties, and add a certain WTP facet. But I see neither option in the MyEclipse menus.
Do I need to do something to enable WTP?
Thanks!

Sorry for the confusion. MyEclipse is built ontop of WTP but you cannot create Dynamic Web Projects in MyEclipse. Since MyEclipse is built on WTP, installing WTP and MyEclispe side by side can cause issue, because loading another version of WTP will causing a huge amount of API incompatibility between MyEclipse and WTP.
Since this plugin need you to create a dynamic web project, I guess you cannot use this with MyEclipse. |
