It’s official: GWT 2.0.0 (with SpeedTracer)
Posted by Olivier Gérardin in GWT on 2009-12-09
Finally, as anticipated Google set the “release” tag on GWT 2.0 and announced it at its Campfire One event yesterday. In addition to the well-known major new features (development mode, Code splitting, UiBinder, ResourceBundle), Google comes with a new tool named Speedtracer to measure the performance of Ajax applications inside the browser. SpeedTracer is only available for Chrome at the moment, unfortunately only on platforms where extensions are supported, which means not on Mac currently (actually it does work on Macs, see comments to this post)…
The online docs have been updated and are still IMHO a model of how online documentation for a project should be done: clear, concise, well structured, complete yet progressive, with examples… it’s almost fun to read. I wish every project had docs like this.

Bruce Johnson:
Hi folks!
GWT 2.0 RC1 is now ready for you to try. The full documentation is still very much a work in progress, but you can at least start trying out the GWT SDK distribution and the Google Plugin for Eclipse using the following instructions:

GWT 2.0 is going to be a big release, so don’t be surprised if there are a few bumps and surprises as we continue to finalize everything.

Building GWT on the Mac
Posted by Olivier Gérardin in GWT on 2009-09-25
If you try to build the latest GWT from the svn repository on a Mac, you may end up with a bunch of errors like the following:
BUILD FAILED /Users/ogerardin/Documents/GWT 2/trunk/build.xml:105: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/ogerardin/Documents/GWT 2/trunk/build.xml:27: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/ogerardin/Documents/GWT 2/trunk/build.xml:58: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/ogerardin/Documents/GWT 2/trunk/platforms.ant.xml:36: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/ogerardin/Documents/GWT 2/trunk/platforms.ant.xml:13: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/ogerardin/Documents/GWT 2/trunk/dev/core/build.xml:192: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/ogerardin/Documents/GWT 2/trunk/common.ant.xml:277: Non-zero status code result (1) running command: svn info
The last line indicates a problem with the “svn” command. The problem is that Mac’s builtin svn client is version 1.4.4 (wich you can check by typing “svn --version” in a terminal), but to build GWT, you need a newer svn client.
The steps to fix this are:
- go to http://www.open.collab.net/downloads/community and download the latest subversion binaries for Mac OS X
- you will get a disk image file; mount it and run the included installer. It will install to /opt/subversion/bin
- edit your ~/.profile file to add the following line:
export PATH=/opt/subversion/bin:$PATH
- start a new shell or type “. ~/.profile” to make sure the change is loaded in the current shell
- type “svn --version” and check that the version is the latest one (1.6.5 as of today)
- cd to your checked out GWT trunk directory, type “ant” and watch GWT build
