Re: Creating a gwt.xml module for a 3rd Party Library

Jeff,

You wrote me that you're interested in wrapping http://commons.apache.org/math/ . This will likely be troublesome since only classes in the JRE Emulation library of GWT can be used. The reason is simply that Javascript is not Java and there are a ton of things you just can't do in JS. These sorts of things can be emulated if one wishes, and the GWT team has done so with the aforementioned classes. You can Super Source some libraries to make them available to the GWT compiler, but if a library uses functions and types that are unavailable in JS (i.e. PhantomReference) then it cannot be done in GWT.

You might be best off pulling out the math functions of interest and trying to get them compiling.

Sincerely,

Joseph
