I’m on MyEclipse 4.0.3GA.

Currently, MyEclipse does a great job on JSP and HTML files – syntax checking, code cleanup, warning tags, and the like.
However, there are a few differences in the way we (rather, I) see the warning/error tags for JSPs, vs the ones for Java code.

1. The JSP warnings are seen next to the right scrollbar, while Java warnings are seen on the left. This is not an issue.

2. The Java problems can be seen as a list in View -> Problems. The JSP problems have to be seen one by one by placing the mouse on the little yellow tag on the right margin. Is there a way to see the warnings/errors as a list?

3. On right-clicking on a yellow tag on the left margin for Java files, we are given an option of “Quick Fix”. For things as trivial as “Unnecessary cast to String”, for example. Is there a way to enable Quick Fix for JSP files?

Thanks in advance,

1) Actually compiler errors are in the left margin (this requires your JDK’s /bin dir to be in your System PATH, this will be changed in MyEclipse 5.0). Reconciler (real time) errors and warnings are shown in the right margin.

2) This will be fixed (and show in the problems view) when you fix Step #1 (JDK’s /bin dir in your System PATH) be sure to restart MyEclipse

3) No quick fix support just yet in the JSP editor, but it’s on our list.

Just voting for Quick-Fix in JSP 😉
