beginner at vaadin- getting error when I try to create a vaadin app

I am trying to create a UI for a java web app using Vaadin.

I am using Eclipse for this purpose, and I have installed the Google Plugin for Eclipse (which includes GWT SDK) as well as the Vaadin plugin for eclipse.

I created a new project using New Project-> New Vaadin Project... but I am seeing an error message in Eclipse console "GWT SDK not installed."

How do I resolve this error? I have already installed Google Plugin for Eclipse which includes GWT SDK.

Thanks...

Don't know. I have never used the google plugin. I always just install the vaadin plugin directly from www.vaadin.com/eclipse and it works nice.

Dont you need to install GWT SDK? Does the GWT SDK get installed when you install the Vaadin Eclipse Plugin? I have installed (first) the Google Plugin and after that the Vaadin plugin.

You don't need anything from GWT when doing normal applications. Vaadin contains a precompiled widgetset. You only need the possibility to compile when you do your own widgets or use add-ons. At that point will the Vaadin plugin download what you need.

So, right now you won't need GWT compiler to anything.
