GWT RequestBuilder Post Response return 0 StatusCode

I have created a very simple servlet that uses HTTP Post method. I have tested it on my local Apache Tomcat server using a simple HTML form that works. I want to integrate it with my GWT app. I am able to call it using FormPanel - in that case it downloads content and there is a flicker in my browser window.

I know I need to use RequestBuilder to access it. But my response.getStatusCode() in my overloaded public void onResponseReceived(Request request, Response response) method always return status as 0 and response.getText() return null

    String url = "http://localhost:8080/servlets/servlet/ShapeColor";
    builder = new RequestBuilder(RequestBuilder.POST, URL.encode(url));


    try {
        String json = getJSONString();
        //builder.setTimeoutMillis(10000);
        builder.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");


        builder.setHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
        builder.sendRequest(json, new RequestCallback() {

            @Override
            public void onError(Request request, Throwable exception) {
                 Window.alert("Couldn't retrieve JSON");
            }

            @Override
            public void onResponseReceived(Request request, Response response) {
              if (200 == response.getStatusCode()) {
               System.out.println("res:"+response.getText());
              } else {
                  System.out.println("err: " + response.getStatusCode()+","+response.getText());
              }
            }
          });
        //Request response = builder.send();

    } catch (RequestException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block

    }

I have tried many thing including changing my servlet following CORS reference ( https://code.google.com/p/gwtquery/wiki/Ajax#CORS_%28Cross_Origin_Resource_Sharing%29 )

It always works on browser using my test.html, but not from my App. Although, onResponseReceived method always gets called

Thanks

Have you checked if your call in the app violates the Same-origin policy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same-origin_policy) in some way? The GWT RequestBuilder uses XMLHttpRequest internally, so it does fall under the SOP.

Does your GWT app run inside the same domain (server + port) as the servlet? Does it use the same protocol (https or http)?
