I have recently started developing another GWT module. So I created a package with all my new classes and one specific class that implements a new entrypoint. I modified in my gwt.xml to my new entrypoint. When I pile, I get the following error:

 GWT Compiling client-side code.
WARNING: '.google.gwt.dev.GWTCompiler' is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
Use '.google.gwt.dev.Compiler' instead.
(To disable this warning, pass -Dgwt.nowarn.legacy.tools as a JVM arg.)
Compiling module .test.gwt
   Finding entry point classes
      [ERROR] Unable to find type '.test.ajax.input.createEntryPoint'
         [ERROR] Hint: Previous piler errors may have made this type unavailable

This isnt a capital letter mistake, both path in gwt.xml and my actual package are written the same... Any clues?

• java
• javascript
• gwt
• jakarta-ee
• piler-errors

• The GWT piler may not be pointing at any of your code. Are you using GWT through Eclipse or some other manner? Do you know why you're getting the deprecated warning? How do you actually invoke the piler. – Pace Commented May 14, 2011 at 12:59
• I am using netbeans with the plugin gwt4nb. The deprecated warning has always been there, even when my code could pile and work properly. Im not sure by what you mean "invoke", but to initiate the pile process I right click on my project, and hit build. Tried cleaning, didnt change anything. – guiomie Commented May 14, 2011 at 13:18

1 Answer 1

1. make sure your code is in 'client' subpackage
2. make sure your .gwt.xml file is in client's parent package

for example change your directory/package structure to this:

/test/ajax/input/client/createEntryPoint.java
/test/ajax/input/Module.gwt.xml

Your Module.gwt.xml should contain the follownig line:

<entry-point class=".test.ajax.input.client.createEntryPoint"/>
