Re: GWT: browse files on the server-side

Well, the RPC approach seems like a very straightforward way to go.
Have a command that takes a String as an argument (the path to the
directory of interest), and returns a Collection of Strings (the files
and directories in the directory of interest). Or you could return a
Map, with relevant metadata as the key (i.e. "File", "Directory"), and
a Collection of Strings as the value.
