Install and License GWT Designer

Before this step, you should Install MyEclipse 7 and Install GWT.

Instatiations makes GWT Designer. It is a GUI builder that allows visual tools to generate Java code. GWT Designer does not need to be installed or used after the UI design phase. The term they use is “bi-directional code generation” meaning GWT Designer can dynamically incorporate code it hasn’t seen before, and generate new code based on your use of GWT Designer. In practice, GWT Designer lags behind the latest release of GWT, and its support for libraries such as Gwt-Ext or Gxt also lags behind. Even so, the reasonable cost of the license is enough to justify its use as an educational tool at least.

Install and License MyEclipse 7

Barriers to entry for software development have never been lower. Compare the cost of tools like MyEclipse with what was required to join Microsoft Developer Network or purchase Sun compilers. Thirty dollars a year vs. thousands.
