[Yanel-dev] Speeding up compiling of resources containing GWT classes

[Michael Wechner]

Hi

In case you are developing a resource type containing GWT classes, e.g.

src/contributions/resources/policymanager/src-gwt

but you only want to compile the "regular" classes, e.g.

src/contributions/resources/policymanager/src

then you might want to consider "patching" the following file in order 
to speed up compiling

Index: src/build/resource-types/GWT-RT.build.xml
===================================================================

gwt:compile" description="Compile Java classes and GWT files"/>
+<!-- INFO: Only compile regular java classes, but no gwt-classes

+-->

<target name="gwt:compile" depends="gwt:clean" description="Compile GWT

This isn't very nice and it would be nicer to have this configurable, 
but it's a start ;-)

Cheers
