deploy module broken for converted project

[alexzakharov]

Environment - latest designer (7.1....0626..), gwt 1.6, eclipse 3.4.2

I have simple one file java console project.
Right click on the project->convert to GWT
Add Module.
(Debug module - everything works - you see the 'ClickMe't button etc)
Deploy module: war is built successfully BUT Module's .html and .css are both wiped out!

This is very easy to duplicate by doing exactly what I did above.

Two Questions:
- I noticed that for brand-new 'pure' GWT project .html and .css for new module get added to war/WEB-INF. But for converted projects .html and .css get added to war/com.my.package.MyModule directory. Is this by design?
- I think the above causes the .html and .css to be wiped out for converted projects because deploy module gwtcompiles the project and is putting resulting files into war/moduleName subdirectory?

Thoughts? For new modules in converted projects should I manually move the auto-generated html and css to WEB-INF? Assuming I'm right... can you fix it in GWT Designer itself, so I dont have to move it manually...

Actually, I was able to duplicate this with 'pure' (non converted) project as well.

- create a brand new GWT project, but do NOT select to automatically create a module for the project.
- then right click on the project to add a module: html, css and 4 gif files are created under web-inf/mymodule
- deploy module. war is created successfully. now, refresh web-inf/mymodule directory - css and html and 4 gifs are all wiped out.

Please give it a try using the very latest GWT Designer v7.1 build.

For the existing project move the gif files, mymodule .css and mymodule .html files out of the /war/mymodule folder to the root of the /war folder.

Thanks, latest designer fixes the issue.
