Hi ,
I was wondering what support there is for Tapestry in MyEclipse . I see it listed as a feature , and I see that there is an option in the My Eclipse menu to : Add Tapestry capabilities . However his feature is grayed out . I allready have a Tapestry 4 project opened , and I can get arround without spindle ( which can’t do tap 4 yet ) or any features from my eclipse . . . But i’d like to see what features there are for tapestry . I looked through the feature page but found nothing of the likes of : JSF editor … Just that there are ” Tapestry capabilities ” .
Can anybody provide any insight ?
Thanks

It’s grayed out because you can only add Tapestry capabilities to a MyEclipse web project. You need to either create a new web project using File > New > Other > MyEclipse > J2EE > Web Project or take an existing Java project that’s already set up as a web project and use “Add Web Capabilities…”. More information on both of these is in the “Working with Web Projects” quickstart in the Documentation Section.
The features are really everything provided with Spindle since our Tapestry support is provided by the lead developer of Spindle. The ‘Add Capabilities’ item helps configure your libraries and the like for successful deployment in MyEclipse.

ugh so basically the support is spindle based which means that tap 4.0 support is not avalable yet right ?
thanks for the doc link , i’ll check it out since i was working with java projects for my web projects . sorry for a few dumb questions i might be guilty off in the begining i’m just trying to get adjusted to my eclipse and i might have a hard time finding things at first .

Tools always lag library releases a little bit; there’s just no way around it. When Geoff can get Tapestry 4 support into Spindle, he’ll integrate it into the MyEclipse implementation as well. I’m sure he’s working on it as fast as he can. Sorry for the delay.
it’s ok , it makes perfect sense since i’m not even sure if tapestry 4 has released a stable version . If it did it was last week . . . ( allthogh the beta has been preety stable for a few good months )
I’m not complaining , myeclipse and spindle are great , however it looks like a lot of tapestry ppl are scared of moving to 4 because of lack of spindle support . And another thing ( and this is a criticism , but nothing but good intentions behind it ) is that it looks like you guys pay much less attention to tapestry than you do to other things like JSF and Struts . But then again that’s nothing out of the ordinary 🙂
In the end thanks for the clarifications , it really helps to know understand the whole pictre with myeclipse and tapestry integration
The stars, the moon and many other things (like life) keep gettting between me and a working version of IDE support for Tapestry 4.
The latest stumbler is a death march at the day job that looks like it will run right through the holidays and into february.
I work on it whenever I can, which right now is not often.
