Hello and congrats for this great extension.
I use MyEclipse pro. I recently installed CodeMix extension and I love it. The problem is that .jsp pages in existing Java projects, I get full functionality where HTML elements are, but in java snippets, I get no syntax coloring and no intellisence suggestions. Is there any way that I can fix that?

gt41,

Thank you for your compliments for CodeMix.
CodeMix has its limitations when it comes to fundamental JSP support like Java completions.
The regular MyEclipse editor is pretty good when compared to CodeMix for JSP files which is why we recommend users to work with MyEclipse JSP editor or MyEclipse Visual JSP Designer instead of CodeMix’s editors.

Apologies for inconvenience caused. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Wanted to add here that we will take a look at what can be done to make both HTML & Java sections work optimally. However, to set expectations, while we think this is a great idea – it isn’t something that we can prioritize for the near term.

I know the MyEclipse JSP editor does offer HTML completions and highlighting too, we’d love to know what features in the CM HTML editor really make the experience so much better for you, if you can spare a moment to let us know.

Thank you for asking!

Just wanted to use CodeMix editors across all languages I use for a project (Java, HTML, CSS, Javascript). Not a deal breaker at all.

Hi gt41

Full support for JSP in codemix editor is in consideration on our mid-term plan, for now as workaround you can try using a external extension called Java Server Pages.
You just need download the extension manually and then install it from our Extension Manager > install from VSIX file.

We find Pros and Cons using this extension

Pros:
– Java code inside jsp file have syntax colors-html
– validation of java code inside jsp file

Cons:
– it not suport java autocomplete
– code higlight not working (site say that is supported).
– existing extension like auto-close-tag stop working on jsp

Thank you very much, Oscar. I’ve tried the extension you mentioned, but the lack of autocomplete is a loss. I’ll keep using the default eclipse JSP editor until .jsp is fully supported by beloved CodeMix.
