Today updated to 3.6.3, glad to see that the JSTL bug has been eliminated (that was error flagged in the editor for JSTL inclusion, when in fact there was no error and the library was present).

However a new bug seems to exist in the taglibs, please anyone with similar experience let me know, in case you have seen the same, or I might be doing something wrong. Here is the test case with the problem:

A JSP file in the web root folder, called page1.jsp, as follows:

<%@taglib tagdir=”/WEB-INF/tags” prefix=”tags” %>

<%@ include file=”/include/header.jspf”%>

<tags:catalogTable>
.. some SQL statements here…
</tags:catalogTable>

<%@include file=”/include/footer.jspf”%>

Then inside the WEB-INF\tags folder there is the file catalogTable.tag which provides certain functionality like including the JSTL libs and building an HTML table ( this is the custom tag). The thing is that the editor flags the first line of page1.jsp as an error (precise error is:
unexpected tagdir=”/WEB-INF/tags”), but it wasn’t before the update to 3.6.3, and it is not an error since the page is deployed fine and it works.

We’ll have to research this one a bit and get back to you on it. Thanks for providing such a detailed description.

My understanding is the “tagdir” attribute is a JSP2.0 spec feature. We have been systematically updating the JSP tools and are not yet at JSP2.0 support level. If you checkout our LibrarySet preferences you’ll see that only J2EE1.3 is supported at this time. We are working in that direction as quickly as possible. I’m forwarding this to our dev. group for more feedback.

what you are saying makes sense. The good thing is that at least the module is deployed fine, so it is not a major issue, seems like it is only the editor that has the problem. If your developers need more detailed info about this particular issue (for example if they want the full code in order to reproduce it) please let me know, I will be happy to provide help

Yes, please send us a code sample for further research and testing. Send to support@genuitec.com.

I have send the related files,

Thanks

Thanks. I received your codebase. For clarity, the issue is that you are attempting to use JSP2.0 features while MyEclipse has not extended support past JSP1.3. We are working on JSP2.0 support but it will be a little while longer before it is released.
