Re: GWT 2.5.1 now available

As Thomas posted earlier, "Google Plugin for Eclipse team, you should ask on https://groups.google.com/d/forum/google-plugin-eclipse".

To clarify on that, the update site installs the GPE (Google Plugin for Eclipse) which includes GWT. The GPE team needs to build the new GWT into their next release, then they will make it available via the update site and your Eclipse update will appear.

Re-downloading the latest SDK from the update site will still get you GWT 2.5.0 until the new GPE version with GWT 2.5.1 is made available.

Thanks for the feedback, Matthew

Eclipse still reports that no updates are available.

Just for clarity, I originally installed the GWT SDK and related Eclipse plugins by doing the following:

1. Clicked 'Help->Install New Software' from the Eclipse menu

2. Clicked 'Add' to create a new Repository

3. Added the URL located on the GWT Download site: http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.2

4. Selected all packages except for the "Google App Engine" stuff.

This installed the plugins and the SDK and setup my Eclipse workspace to point to the SDK (2.5.0)

Now, I go to 'Help->Check for Updates' in hopes that Eclipse will indicate that GWT 2.5.1 is there but instead it says that no updates are available. 

My theory is that the SDK itself is maybe not "technically" part of any Eclipse plugin so the update site is unable to distinguish between the Eclipse plugins and the SDK itself. This is because I do get periodic updates to the GWT related plugins such as GWTDesigner and so on.

Anyway, just wanted to clarify this. In order to update now I will simply reinstall Eclipse and re download the latest SDK from the update site.

Thanks!

Has 2.5.1 been posted to the Eclipse update site yet? When I check for software updates in Eclipse it says that none are available.. Should it automatically update from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1?

I'm not very familiar with the Eclipse plugin to be honest, but I believe it should work as we uploaded the 2.5.1 SDK to the Eclipse repository yesterday.  E.g., http://dl.google.com/dl/eclipse/gwt/site.xml currently redirects to http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/eclipse_toolreleases/products/sdks/gwt/gwt-2.5.1/site.xml.

Can you try again and let me know if things still aren't working as expected?
