Winston Churchill

The power of the executive to cast a man into prison without formulating any charge known to the law, and particularly to deny him the judgment of his peers, is in the highest degree odious, and the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist.

GWT RPC with DataSource and Hosted Mode example

I updated the "sample example that is quite ample" earlier this week, forgot to note it here.

The sample is a GWT RPC example that now includes using a DataSource with an HSQL database. This example shows you how to set things up to work in Hosted Mode (with the "Tomcat Lite" that comes with GWT) and how to deploy a WAR.

Along with basic GWT RPC and a DataSource it also demonstrates throwing exceptions across the wire, custom serializable types, how to configure web.xml and context.xml - and so on, a complete walk through.

The sample is gwt-maven (Maven 1.x plugin for GWT) focused - *but also includes a section on doing the setup manually if you are not using Maven*.
