[ews.eclipse.technology.rap] Re: FileUpload provided from .jar (plugin)

[Aleksandar Pavlov <a.pavlov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ben,
I am afraid that I am not sure what 'running RWT standalone' means...
However I start my projects in Eclipse and I deploy them in tomcat
sometimes, so in either case there is a web-container running /Jetty in
the first case/.
I hope that I managed to export the upload widget as a plug-in but I'm
not quite sure...
Here is the manifest file generated after the Eclipse export process
proposed in the 'Overview' tab of the plugin.xml:

Thanks for your time,
Aleks
