I would like to know if there is a way to tell the BJE jsp compiler to locate a taglibrary jar file that does not exist under the web-root/WEB-INF/lib directory.

Thanks,

Presently MyEclipse JSP code completion and validation are driven off of taglibs and jars under a web project’s <webroot>/WEB-INF folder. We are working on a more flexible web project structure for an up coming release.

If you ever consider to deploy your application, how should the application container be able to locate a jar, if it is NOT in /WEB-INF/lib?

So it is not a BJE but a JSP application issue, how to setup the directory structure and file locations.

Within Eclipse you might solve that issue by adding the JAR to the build path.

Thanks NOP,

As NOP stated, consider adding the taglib to the classpath as a workaround. Just note that the deployer will only recognize and deploy content and taglibs under the project’s webroot.

Sorry for not giving enough details on my last post. So, here we go:

I am trying to develop Pluto portlets using MyEclipse. Currently, Pluto provides a tag library jar file that should be deployed on the shared lib directory on Tomcat. At the same time, I am trying to figure out the best way to take advantage of MyEclipse JSP compilation and sync-on-demand deployment.

Previously, I thought I had a problem with the JSP complier if I don’t specify the jar file in the lib directory, but I was wrong. If I add the jar file to the build path, JSP compilation is fine. This seems to be the best way to satisfy my requirement.

Thanks for you input.
