What operating system? Win XP SP1
What Eclipse version and build id are you using? 3.0.1
MyEclipse? 3.8.3
– Was Eclipse freshly installed for MyEclipse? yes about 2 months ago
– Are any other external plugins installed? no
What JDK version are you using to run Eclipse? Sun 1.4.2
What JDK version are you using to launch your application server? 1.4.2What steps did you take that resulted in the issue?
I was continuing work on a Struts project that I started using 3.8.2. A new JSP I created has all kinds of color syntax highlighting problems, with seemingly random characters (or groups of 2-5) being rendered in black, blue, green, red, etc.As well, in both new and old JSPs, tag completion no longer works. JSP validation works, errors are indicated when there are errors, context sensitve help displays when I hit control-space, but no end-tag completion (which I didn’t realize that I’d become so used to)..
Please try closing down Eclipse, editing the shortcut you use to launch it, adding the -clean command line argument, then restarting Eclipse (this will let it rebuild the plugin cache). Now try and clean/rebuild your project (close all open editors first) then try and edit… are things better? (you can remove -clean after Eclipse starts up).
I closed all editors, shut down eclipse, restarted with the -clean option (from command line), opened up the JSP edit and auto-completion of end tags was still not working. If I type in </ and press ctrl-space, I do see “End with </p>” as the first option, but it doesn’t do it for me automatically. Could I have shut this off accidenly somehow?
Ahh, the automatic insertion is not availble in the JSP editor yet, just the HTML editor… is this maybe the issue?
