问题
i recently updated from GWT 2.0.4 to 2.1.0. Since then I cannot compile my GWT application anymore. When I click on the GWT compile button of the GWT eclipse plugin I get the following error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/google/gwt/dev/Compiler
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.google.gwt.dev.Compiler
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202)

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:248)
Exception in thread "main"
Also I can't create a new GWT project in Eclipse. In the new New Web Application Project Dialog one can choose to use GWT and/or Google App Engine. When check "Use GWT" a error dialog raises up which says: "Creation of element failed. Reason: Invocation of com.google.gwt.user.tools.WebAppCreator failed. See the error log for more details."
In the log file (<workspace>/.metadata/.log) I can see the message:

gwt-dev.jar, gwt-user.jar and many other google-jars are in the classpath...
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this issue? I also set up a new fresh Eclipse installation, installed the new GWT plugin, and chose a new workspace directory, but this still gives me the errors...
Additional information:
- Windows XP,
- Eclipse for Java EE 3.6 Helios,
- J2EE / Java 1.6.0_22-b04
- Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.6 1.4.0.v201010280102,
- Google App Engine Java SDK 1.3.8 1.3.8.v201010161055
- Google Web Toolkit SDK 2.1.0 2.1.0.v201010280102

I had the same problem not being able to create a new GWT-project in Eclipse. Removing the Classpath variable from my windows environment variables (appearently interfering with the settings in Eclipse) solved the problem for me.
回答2:
In my case the jar (gwt-dev-2.1.0.jar) downloaded from the google maven repo was corrupt! I replace the jar in my repo with a one containing the classes and mvn gwt:run worked!
hope this helps.

I was facing a similar issue where I was getting constantly java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/google/gwt/dev/Compiler. While searching around I realized that the gwt version was missing a file from inside the gwt-dev folder inside the gwt installation directory.
Actually, I am using maven and gwt 2.5.0 for my project, and I discovered that inside .m2\repository\com\google\gwt\gwt-dev\2.5.0 folder should exist four files in order for gwt compiler to work. Those are
- gwt-dev-2.5.0.jar <-sometimes this is corrupted
- gwt-dev-2.5.0.jar.sha1 <- this one was missing
- gwt-dev-2.5.0.pom
- gwt-dev-2.5.0.pom.sha1

Go to your Project Properties / Build Path there move the "GWT library" to the top of the BuildPath.
Now try to recompile again.
回答5:
I just, remove and include again gwt-dev.jar and start to work.
回答6:
I fix that problem doing this:
- remove GWT lib from your project
- update gwt plugins for eclipse
- put the lib back in your project
- Done
回答7:
I had the same problem, some java program had been installed declaring a "ClassPath" environment variable, and invalidating the gwt plugin for ANY version of eclipse, from 3.6 (helios) to 4.2 (juno). Note that environment variables are case-insensitive in Windows OSs. Solution: eliminate the system/user variable declaration and declare the variable in a/the launch script for the concerned program.
回答8:
My understanding is:
When GWT compiles a project, it needs the tool "com.google.gwt.dev.Compiler" (which has a "main" entry point); however, GWT does not use Eclipse project's "build path" setting to find the tool, instead, it looks at OS's "classpath" system variable.
So, I think the solution is to add "D:\Java\GWT\gwt-2.6.1\*;" (my case as example) into "classpath" and restart Eclipse. It works well for me since.
