Description Mike Cunneen

In WTP M3:

The JSP custom taglib content-assist won't work unless the project is 
located within the main eclipse workspace.  

To reproduce this, create a new 
J2EE Web project in the workspace, close it, delete it (but don't delete 
contents), move the project folder out of the workspace and import it.  Now 
JSP custom taglib content assist won't work.  If you repeat these steps to 
move the project folder back into the workspace, it works again.

Changed Version field given new release numbering.

The custom taglib content-assist does not work with linked folders as well.

I created a linked folder for WebContent and the content-assist, which worked
before, does not work anymore. I tried it with Eclipse 3.1RC2 and WTP I20050617.

This problem still exists in build I20050627-1435 with WTP 0.7 (from the wtp-
all-in-one-0.7-win32.zip) .

Does restarting Eclipse help at all?

Comment 5 Klaus Kierer

2005-08-02 13:26:04 EDT

no, unfortunately not with the environment i have tested (Eclipse 3.1RC2 and WTP
I20050617), but maybe i have the time to test it with Eclipse 3.1 and WTP 0.7
tomorrow.

No, restarting eclipse doesn't help with my version I20050627-1435 with WTP 
0.7 , windows xp, sun jdk 1.5.0.02

Hi, I've never been able to get custom tag support operational in 3.1. I use the
technique of not installing tlds in the WEB-INF directory of a project abd using
the full URIs of the TLDs so that they can be found in the jars. I have not once
had Eclipse recognise or perform any sort of assist for these tags. 

Don't know if this is exactly relevant to this bug, but thoughts I might add the
comment anyway ;-)

Bug 108850 contains a patch that should be reviewed.

Should be fixed for 1.0M8.

This bug was moved to 'closed' state, since it is so old and it is assumed really fixed and no longer useful or need further attention. Feel free to re-open, or open a new bug, if this semi-automatic processing was done in error.
