How to add a java library to client-side code?

[Serge]

I have a java library that I want to share between several GWT projects. This library should be used on the client (GWT will compile it to js). I used only the GWT supported java subset for it. Eclipse does not give me any errors, it finds the library, but when I use GWT Builder deploy tool I get a error:

The import com.mysite.clientutil cannot be resolved

Is that shared code in an imported module?

All code that is used in the client should be in some module. i.e. you should declare your common code as some com.mycompany.gwt.Utils (.gwt.xml) module and add <inherits name='com.mycompany.gwt.Utils'/> to your module with an EntryPoint, in same way that you add <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.User'/>.

It's in the "Required projects on the build path". I also tried making it a jar and using it as a "library". I've already figured out that I need to use "<inherits>". I also had to modify your ant task to include the source code of the "parent" module to the class path for gwt compiler.

Give the latest build a try.

Now we add the source folders of any referenced projects. This should fix deployment compilation and running.
