Content assist behaving oddly for JSPs

Rate this Message:
I recently upgraded to Eclipse Galileo, and am now having trouble with content-assist in JSP pages in my existing projects.
The projects have been re-created doing a fetch from source control that doesn't hold any of the .????? files to ensure there is no conflict there (I dont know if this would be - never had to worry about it before). In general tho, on any existing JSP files content assist doesn't work, I just get a beep and nothing happens. On any newly created JSP's it works perfectly. Now for the bizarre twist - If I resave an existing JSP with a new name (just a simple save as and appending a 2 to the name), the content assist starts working in the old one. Although its a workaround for now, its a highly frustrating one. I have disabled the validation of JSP's as we have a number of JSP's in JSP's and just get endless errors for them - but that doesnt explain the save copy thing above? |

Hi, Could you please open bugs (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi) making sure to document any errors you find in the logs, possibly example projects, etc to help recreate this problem? The more information we get, the better. Also, if you create the bug report about JSP validation, could you document what kind of validation errors you're seeing. Thank you, Nick

Thank you for your quick response, and I will log a bug report when I have some useful detail thats worth logging, but at the moment there isn't much!
I have tried creating a small example project to show this, but with little success - and the project it occurs in is a little on the huge side (not that I'd be able to provide it either). Exactly the same problems have occured for everyone in my department who has tried Galileo. We use exactly the same steps that I used on previous Eclipses (a mix of JBuilder2007, Europa and Ganymede). After creating a new dynamic web app, setting up the build path, performing the checkout from Surround SCM overwriting anything there and then refreshing the project. There is one error in the only place I know to look (that being the Window->show view->error log). The error is :- The Java indexing could not index <path>/WebApp/WEB-INF/lib/icu4j.jar|com/ibm/icu/impl/data/LocaleElements_zh__PINYIN.class. This .class file doesn't follow the class file format specification. Please report this issue against the .class file vendor but I dont think its likely this is to blame. . . Is there anywhere else in particular I should look for logs relevant to this area of eclipse? Thanks, << JOC >> |

Without knowing more about the specifics, I couldn't tell you why JSP content assist isn't working. I can say that the embedded Java content assist won't work unless you have the Servlet API on the Java Build Path somehow, and it can be quirky in cases where no Java Source Folder is set on the project (there's a bug reported for that already). For finding and using tag libraries, the editor expects they either be in Jar files visible on the project's Java Build Path, or that the WEB-INF folder's parent folder is a parent folder of the JSP file and the tag library, or that you've formally defined the deployment layout using the .settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.component file and have the ModuleCoreNature on the project. -- --- Nitin Dahyabhai Eclipse WTP Source Editing IBM Rational _______________________________________________ wtp-dev mailing list wtp-dev@... https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/wtp-dev |

(save doesn't work, it has to be "save as" and overwrite the original file). This is a good enough work around for now, but does this mean there is some metadata or cache that is being updated by "save as" that isn't changed by save? << JOC >> |

This is usually a last resort kind of option, but try shutting down Eclipse and removing the entire .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.jst.jsp.core directory from under your workspace. Any cached JSP information would be in there and will automatically be rebuilt when needed. Regards, --- Nitin Dahyabhai Eclipse WTP Source Editing IBM Rational
