Debugging with GWT

From OpenKM Documentation

Go to run configurations and add new java application configuration as you can see in this screenshoot.

First of all, open the pom.xml file and uncomment this section:

<!-- Only for development --> 
<dependency> 
   <groupId>com.google.gwt</groupId>
   <artifactId>gwt-dev</artifactId>
   <version>${gwt.version}</version>
   <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

Set the Main class:

com.google.gwt.dev.DevMode

Set program arguments

-port 8080 -noserver -startupUrl  /OpenKM/frontend/index.jsp com.openkm.frontend.Main

and the VM arguments

-Xms1024m -Xmx1024M

Set the jdk 1.6

Set the class path. Pay special attention in adding folder /openkm/src/main ( using button advanced and add folder option )

Now you can run ( better if you run in debug mode, you can set breakpoints in your eclipse code ). It'll appear some screen like this:

To debug login put in your browser

http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/frontend/index.jsp?gwt.codesvr=127.0.1.1:9997

To debug frontend first authenticate and after it, put in your browser

http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/frontend/index.html?gwt.codesvr=127.0.1.1:9997

You debug into eclipse, see variables values etc...

OpenKM version 4.1 and older

Set the program arguments

-port 8080 -noserver -startupUrl  /OpenKM/com.openkm.frontend.Main/index.html com.openkm.frontend.Main

To debug login put in your browser

http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/com.openkm.login.Main/index.jsp?gwt.codesvr=127.0.1.1:9997

To debug frontend first authenticate and after it, put in your browser

http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/com.openkm.frontend.Main/index.html?gwt.codesvr=127.0.1.1:9997
