UndeclaredThrowableException with a client only eclipse scout application

Question

I am trying to do a client only Eclipse Scout application.

I selected the menu “New Scout Project…” and in the first step of the wizard I checked only:

com.company.app.ui.swt
com.company.app.client
com.company.app.shared

Everything seems to be fine, but when I start my client application, I get following Stacktrace:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.scout.rt.client 4 0 2014-07-09 15:35:06.078
!MESSAGE org.eclipse.scout.rt.client.AbstractClientSession.startSession(AbstractClientSession.java:257) load session

Why does the Client application needs to connect to a server that do not exists?

The new project wizard of the Scout SDK is not really suitable to create a client only application. You need to adapt the generated code manually in some places.

The simplest (and most limited) approach is described in the Scout book where we describe a Scout widget demo application.

For a more elaborate answer you might want to read through this forum post.

This is an issue of the Scout SDK.

When you create your new scout project, the generated client code rely on a server, even if you have unchecked the server in the wizard.

You need to remove the elements that produce calls to the server.

In <your app>.client.ClientSession.execLoadSession() remove the lines:

setServiceTunnel(new ClientHttpServiceTunnel(this, UriUtility.toUrl(getBundle().getBundleContext().getProperty("server.url"))));

//pre-load all known code types
CODES.getAllCodeTypes(com.company.app.shared.Activator.PLUGIN_ID);

In <your app>.client.ui.desktop.Desktop remove the inner-class:

@Order(25)
public class BookmarkMenu extends AbstractBookmarkMenu {
  public BookmarkMenu() {
    super(Desktop.this);
  }
}

Your client only application will start.
