Sorry to follow up my own question, but can you give some specific cases where this would
be a problem? Thanks!

Hi Laszlo,
I have several methods that define the @Override annotation and return something different
from the super class. I haven't had any problems compiling them in GWT. The return
value does extend from the return value of the super class, although this is a requirement
in Java as well so I'm not sure where the difference is.

Hi,
Just noticed that eclipse juno is adding @Ovewrride annotations to methods that are
actually overriding something, like in many cases clone and equals methods in some of the
classes. This is fine for the java compiler, but it in some cases the GWT compiler is not
going to accept this annotation. E.g. if the return type is different than the method with
same name in the superclass.
Juno is doing this by default without asking, when saving the file. So be extra-careful
when editing java classes if they are shared with GWT
Laszlo
