I have already found an entry about the possibility to configure JSP compiling (like: define folders / files that should be compiled / not compiled), but it was from last year. So I thought, I could try again 🙂
In our project we have folders containing JSP files, that should not be compiled. This files are not in the web-root folder.
So it would be really nice to have the possibility to exclude this folder from compiling. Or perhaps limit the automated compiling to the web-root folder and ignore JSP files in other locations.
(I am using MyEclipse 3.8.0 GA for Eclipse 3.0 )
Thank you!

Have I overlooked it? Maybe.
Could you please give me a hint, where to configure this feature? 😉
Thank you!Birgit
Birgit,
The reason this is still enabled is so you can use ME in Java Projects that have not been given web capabilities. I have filed a new enhancement though to be able to “ignore JSP pages not under the webroot” to see if we can get that in for you soon.How about being able to specify which JSPs to (not) compile based on predefined Working Sets? Thsi would be more generic and much more eclipse-compliant. “JSP pages not under the webroot” could just be defined as one of the working sets.
For projects with web-capabilities it basically only makes sense to compile stuff under the web-root, everything else is normally not relevant. This should be the default!
It is an interesting feature to allow JSP compiling in projects without web-capabilities. Here working sets sound like a good solution.No problem, we want you guys to have the functionality you need in ME.
sturze: It does seem odd that we support that, but there were a few users who wanted ME’s functionality with JSP editing inside of normal Java Projects without changing them to web projects, so we engineered that support in, which is why we compile things that are not neceessariy under the webroot. But I agree, FOR a web module project, the default should be to ignore non-webroot resources for compilation.
