GWT Remote Debugging

gwt, java

Solution

If I understood you right you're trying to connect your client to the remote server and debug client? I'm always debugging using Eclipse IDE. So:

- you run debug mode in your Eclipse.

- put in your browser url like http://remotedomain.com:8888/?gwt.codesvr=127.0.0.1:9997 where gwt.codesvr is your local(!) machine.

Now, you are able to talk to the remote server, but your client-side code is from inside your machine. You can use all power of the Eclipse to debug.

Hope this will help you.

Problem

I'm trying to do a remote debug session for my GWT app. I added an entry in the GWT plugin running on a Firefox instance in the remote machine: ``` Host Name | Code Server [IP address] [127.0.0.1] ``` However, I'm am still not able to access the GWT app even though I can ping the IP address with the specific port: `8888` Any ideas?
