Skipping GWT compilation in Intellij-Idea 9

It seems to me that since GWT 2.0's development mode runs until your project is complete there is essentially no technical reason to run the actual Java->Javascript portion of the compiler when developing. Unfortunately in Idea 9 before your application server starts up the GWT compiler runs and the output is bundled into your .war. The server-side .java files are (somewhat) incrementally compiled when you do an Intellij "Make" but the GWT code always does a full compile.

Without resorting to writing my own build scripts is there a way to have Intellij not compile GWT code when I am developing and instead rely only on development mode?

You can use GWT Run configuration to start GWT in Dev Mode. In such case IDEA will not build war file so GWT compiler won't run.
