Installing GWTCOMP
Steps:
- Decide whether you need the source distribution or the
binary distribution. Unless you are are planning to view or modify
GWTCOMP sources, you are unlikely to need the source distribution.
- Download the distribution of your choice from the GWTCOMP
download site. Click here to go
to the download site.
- Using an UNZIP utlity, extract the distribution. You can
use
the "jar" utility included with the JDK to unzip the file (jar xvMf distribution_name.zip). The
unzip tool will create a directory called "gwtcomp" under
which it will place the content.
- The binary distribution contains the following directory
hierarchy:
You will find all the javadoc in the apidocs directory. Open the
api/index.html using any web browser. To start using GWTCOMP in your
code, follow the steps described here.
- If you extracted the source distribution, you will
have to build the sources in order to produce the jar files, javadoc
documentation and other resources that you will need. To build the
source distribution, follow the instructions given here.
- In the war sub directory under the root directory of the
binary distribution (or if you build
from the sources), we
have included a gwtcomp.war file. Install this file on any Servlet
container (Tomcat, Jboss, Weblogic, etc.) if you like. It is a web
application, that shows you live examples of the widgets and servlets.
It also includes the javadocs
including sample source code. The sample source code is included with
the source distribution.
