Log when an error causes Design view to be blank...

[bpetro]

Eric, or whoever - I'm using Designer working on some screens that existed. A number of screens have had some small error that GWT passes over but Designer appears to stop its processing and display a "Empty Composite" message. I don't mind that so much because it *IS* showing me there is some issue even if it might be a minor matter. But I haven't yet found a log or some means of determining what Designer ran into to then fix it. Is there a way to access a log file or to see an error message or ideally a stack when it halted?

You can look at the Eclipse ".log" file and your project ".gwt-log" file.

Thanks Eric, that's exactly what I needed ...

Note that the Eclipse Error Log view can be very helpful as it will show any logged exceptions and allow you to double-click on any of them for details.
