Questions about JET2 should be directed to the m2t newsgroup, which I've
added to the "to" list.

Sorry, I see you already did that. Just don't bother cross posting it
to EMFT next time...

Ok, I did some more investigations.
I had hard time debugging my plugins and I found where I was mistaken when
I was writing this post, and now it works.
I was confused with all those libraries and tags ids and forgot a package
when importing mys custom tag... too bad :-(
I keep wondering why there is so few articles about JET2. Online help is
good for a minimal implementation but it goes hard when trying to go
further.
Anyways, thanks for the EMFT and all Eclipse Teams for their great job.
Vincent.

Vincent,
Documentation is typically lacking because there are barely enough
people to do all the development and support work. :-(

Hi Vladimir,
your're right, it was just a matter of extension point and depedency, but
i'm new to eclipse and all that stuff was not so clear to me. Hoppefully
my plugins works fine now.
Best regards,
Vincent.

Hi,
I am fairly new to JET. I tried my hands with custom JET tags using steps
described in this thread. Everything runs smooth when custom tags are
defined in same project where my JET Templates are but what I want is -
custom tags should be in separate project and templates in another
project. Following are the steps I performed -
1. Create plugin project (org.test.customtag) and written custom tag
there. Dependencies include org.eclipse.jet.Also created
org.eclipse.jet.tagLibraries extension (library id - "customlibrary", tag
id - "HelloWorld" (function tag), prefix - "cl").
2. I created another project (EMFT JET Transformation Project) having JET
transformations which has org.test.customtag in its dependencies list
along with org.eclipse.jet. I also added my custom library under
(transform)/(taglibraries) using new importLibrary option, specifying id
as "org.test.customtag.customlibrary" and prefix as "cl" along with
autoImport="true".
Then I am using my tag (<cl:HelloWorld>James</cl:HelloWorld>) in one of
the template. But when I run my template, I am getting following error -
"Could not load JET template loader". Can any one please point out the
cause of this error.
Please note that as soon as I remove "org.test.customtag" project from
dependencies list, this error goes away (though in this case I cann't get
output of my custom tag but this gives me a feeling that I am doing
something wrong while including this custom tag project in my JET template
project).
Thanks in advance.

Vinay:
When you run a JET Transformation from a workspace project, the JET engine
attempts dynamically loads the plug-in into the workbench. But, JET will not
attempt to dynamically load dependencies (such as your tag library). Here's
the sequence of events:
1) you run you JET transform.
2) JET engine realizes its the workspace, and attempts to load it via OSGi.
3) OSGi realizes the transform plug-in has an unresolved dependency on
org.test.customtags and fails the load of transform plug-in.
4) The message you are getting is a side effect of this failure - the engine
is reporting that it could not load a class out of the plug-in that failed
to load. I've submitted a bugzilla to make the error message better
(https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=179286)
But, the fact remains that the transformation plug-in won't load. You have
two choices:
1) launch a run-time workbench that includes both you JET transformation and
your custom tags plug-in, and run your transformation there.
2) install you custom tags plug-in into your development workbench.
I would consider an enhancement to the JET engine to attempt to load
dependencies dynamically, but my sense is this could get very complex, very
quickly. It certainly won't happen for this release.
