Java "Getting Started" guide is incorrect. #34

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

The Java "Getting Started" guide does not match what actually happens on a 
real machine!

Just downloaded & installed the latest versions today:
Eclipse 3.5
Google Plugin 1.3.2
Google App Engine SDK 1.3.2
Google Web Toolkit SDK 2.0.3

http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/tools/eclipse.html says that 
the folder structure created should be:

Guestbook/
  src/
    guestbook/
      server/
        GuestbookServlet.java
    META-INF/
      jdoconfig.xml
    log4j.properties
    logging.properties
  war/
    WEB-INF/
      lib/
        ...App Engine JARs...
      appengine-web.xml
      web.xml
    index.html

That's not true!
The folder structure actually created is:

Guestbook/
  src/
    guestbook/
      GuestBook.gwt.xml
      client/
        GreetingService.java
        GreetingServiceAsync.java
        GuestBook.java
      server/
        GreetingServiceImpl.java
      shared/
        FieldVerifier.java
    META-INF/
      jdoconfig.xml
    log4j.properties
    logging.properties
  war/
    WEB-INF/
      classes
      lib/
        ...App Engine JARs...
      appengine-web.xml
      web.xml
    GuestBook.css
    GuestBook.html

Is there a proper description somewhere that properly reflects reality?

is your project created with a Google Web Toolkit?

Good grief - that wasa long time ago!

I think the problem was that the web page quoted is unclear in (not) stating 
that 
you must *not* use Google Web Toolkit for the results to be as described?
