If a user adds a variableResolver or propertyResolver in the facesconfig
file, is it possible for him to provide the code for the content assist and
validation for his custom variableResolver and propertyResolver?
Or, how are going to support the content assist/validation for the custom
variableResolver/propertyResolver?
Thanks.

You can use the org.eclipse.jst.jsf.core.propertyresolver and
variableresolver extension points to register your own design time
overrides. You can then call
DesignTimeApplicationManager.setPropertyResolverProvider or
setVariableResolverProvider for a particular IProject where you want to
use this override.

You can find information on this in the JSF Developer Guide.

Could you give the link to the "JSF Developer Guide"?
Thanks.

It is in the built in help system if you the JSF feature installed. After
unzipping the JSF build into Eclipse, try Help->Help Contents.

Hi, Cameron,

For an expression e.g., "A.b.c", when generating the symbols for "c",
sometime we need to know the information in the symbol "A".
Is it possible to add an API getBase() for ISymbol interface?

Thanks.

It is possible, although I'm not sure ISymbol is the correct place to do
it since this places the burden on all producers of symbols to have this
information. Can you give a little more information about the specific
use case so that I can form a canonical understanding of the use case?
What is it about 'c' that knowing about b isn't enough? How does your
runtime property resolver solve this?

See an example in the following URL:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wsadhelp/v5r1m2/ind ex.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.etools.jsf.doc/topics/tjsflists.html

For an expression e.g., "selectitems.myBean.label.value.toArray", both
"label" and "value" are the properties of the bean "myBean". So to get the
symbols for "value" will need to know "myBean".
In Runtime, the property resolver will have a pointer to its base (parent)
property resolver.

Thanks.

I have added a feature request bug:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=179854

Please add any further details as well as prioritization requirements to
help us with scheduling.

As an alternative, you could consider implementing your own ISymbol (the
framework can by extendend through the ecore model) and create your own
special type of IPropertySymbol that takes the same ITypeDescriptor as its
parent. You would also need to write your own custom DTPropertyResolver,
although this will be necessary even with the exact change you have
requested.
