Description Brian Gardner

I'm porting over a web application from a windows box where this functionality works as expected and all .jsf files are not validated.  However I can not get this to work properly on my brand new Mac.  I've tried toggling the option per file, per project, and globally and all have no effect, .jsf files are still being validated.  I downloaded the ganymede Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers package and used software updates to update to the latest version.  I'm also running Mylyn and Subclipse.

Usually JSP fragments are expected to be named .jspf.  .jsf files are expected to be JavaServer Faces files.

Are you sure?  If I go to General->Content Types->Text->JSP->JSP Fragment I see

*.jsf (locked)
*.jspf (locked)

Further more I have a setup that's near identical on Windows and the .jsf extensions do the trick.

Brian's right.

If I had to guess, something's amiss in org.eclipse.jst.jsp.core.internal.validation.JSPBatchValidator.isFragment(IFile)or its caller.  Brian, can you attach a sample file that's being validated regardless of the preference setting?

I am having the same issue on windows version.

Not the best workaround, but what I've done to rectify the problem.

Right click on main project on Project Expolorer or Navaigator and select the properties option.  Choose the Validation option.  You have the option to change this in your project prefs or globally if you prefer, I did per project settings so they would be stored in version control.  Click the ... (elipse) and remove .jsf files from the include list for the validators "JSP Content Validator" and "JSP Syntax Validator".  Now right click on the mainApp again and select the validate option.  Good luck!
