GWT and Inherited Modules-CodePudding

I know there are a lot of similar questions out there regarding this issue but none of them have helped me. I think it could be because of my relative skill level with maven and gwt, but I'd like to ask for help.

I am currently getting this error:

It goes on for every single class file listed in the com.server package that I have.

Below is the pjg.gwt.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--
  When updating your version of GWT, you should also update this DTD 
reference,
  so that your app can take advantage of the latest GWT module 
capabilities.
-->
<!DOCTYPE module PUBLIC "-//Google Inc.//DTD Google Web Toolkit 2.9.0//EN"                             
"https://www.gwtproject.org/doctype/2.9.0/gwt-module.dtd">
<module rename-to='com'>
  <!-- Inherit the core Web Toolkit stuff.                        -->
  <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.User'/>
  <!-- Inherit the default GWT style sheet.  You can change       -->
  <!-- the theme of your GWT application by uncommenting          -->

  <!-- <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.chrome.Chrome'/> -->
  <!-- <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.dark.Dark'/>     -->
  <!-- Other module inherits                                      -->
  <!-- Specify the app entry point class.                         -->
  <entry-point class='com.client.pjg'/>
  <!-- Specify the paths for translatable code                    -->
  <source path='client'/>
  <source path='shared'/>
  <source path='server'/>
  <!-- allow Super Dev Mode -->
  <add-linker name="xsiframe"/>
</module>

And here is my pom.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I believe there is just an issue with the declaration in either the pom or the gwt.xml file but I can't seem to figure it out. I have my declared source paths in the gwt.xml and I believe I have everything I need in the pom.xml. My only other thought is that there might be something mislabeled/titled? Really unsure at this point and figure another set of eyes would be a help.

Is there anything obvious I am missing?

Thanks in advance!

CodePudding user response：

Your code is using the SmartGWT library, so it needs to be declared in your module (.gwt.xml) file, like so:

<inherits name='com.smartgwt.SmartGwt' />

You might to check the SmartGwt documentation for your version, to make sure that this is still the correct entry point.
