gwt - Error when importing a gwt project using Maven import in Eclipse

I am using Eclipse, Version: Indigo Service Release 1.

My GWT version is 2.4.0. I installed everything like GWT and Maven related plugins.

I am trying to import a existing gwt-maven project. When importing, I see this dialog:

error when importing

Can anyone tell me why and how to solve it?

Solution

  • Google is your dear friend.

    By entering "no marketplace entries found to handle gwt-mavn-plugin", I got:

    Error when importing Maven-GWT project ("No marketplace entries found to handle gwt-maven-plugin")

    gwt-maven-plugin with Eclipse Indigo

    Eclipse: Import Maven project, missing maven-gae-plugin

    EDIT :

    Actually I would advise you to use maven from the command line instead of using the Maven plugin in Eclipse as I had exprienced many issues with it.

    From the command line, run the following commands:

    • To compile and install : mvn clean install
    • to generate eclipse project: mvn eclipse:eclipse

    Afterwards, from your eclipse, import your generated project as a normal project and voila!

    Hope this helps!
