    Not sure if maybe my set up of myeclipse is wrong or not, but currently I can not seem to get JSP scriplets or tags to support any pop up help using ctrl-space. The JSPs compile fine and the JSTL tags will create closing tags for me after I create the starting one, but I’m not getting any pop up support.

    I’m using SuSE Linux8.2 , myEclipse 2.6 and my project is located under /home/myUserName/MyProjects

    Any help would be much appreciated.. thank you.

    Rick,

    First, please remember that context help won’t function if there are compilation errors in the class.

    However, I did isolate a case where context help didn’t show up in the JSP editor, but it appears to related to certain usage contexts and formatting. Try generating just a default JSP with the JSP wizard and see if the pop-up help works for the sciptlets in it, just as a test.

    The entire application is compiling without any errors (the JSPs included).

    Ok I will try that and let you know. I actually need the tag support more than the JSP scriplet support since I rarely have scriplets in the page. I’ll certainly give this test a try.

    Thanks for trying to help me get to the bottom of this.

    Just tried here at work now and no luck with this test. The only kind of pop-up help I can get is with html tags.

    I have a friend that is a Linux user. The first thing they did was to set things up as Emacs key bindings. Once they did that, code assist for eclipse used a different key combination.

    I just double checked and I’m using the standard key mapping configuration.

    I’m getting frustrated:) Another thing I’m finding odd is even the html support – the pop up assist doesn’t seem consistent. On some JSP pages I can type <table and instantly a pop up will appear with some choices… on other pages I get no pop up on any html tag nor can I ever seem to activate the pop up with ctrl space.

    I’m sorry you’re experiencing this problem. We are researching it now and as Scott stated earlier we have identified a couple of places were code completion is intermittent. Can you send us a copy of your application or an abbreviated webapp project that has this problem (We don’t need it run only for isolating code completion problem)? Send to support@genuitec.com. Lastly our test env has only Redhat 8 & 9 systems, not SuSE (not sure if that matters).
