Eclipse Web Tools Platform 3.1 M5
New and Noteworthy

SSE

Semantic Highlighting support

Although it will be more exciting once adopters start using it, SSE-based editors now support Semantic Highlighting. Enablement of this functionality is controlled from the Structured Text Editors Preference page.

XML Schema

Improved visual cues for abstract types and elements

Abstract types and elements are now italicized in the XML Schema editor.

Multiple selection of items

Users can now hit Ctrl+A or select Edit->Select All to select all items in the XML Schema editor. Users can also hold the Shift key to select a range of items in the editor.

JSP

Enhancements when editing Tag Library Descriptors

When editing a JSP Tag Library Descriptor, the XML Editor will offer some additional functionality. First, the Outline view will show more information about the TLD's values.



Also, hyper-links are now available for Java classes referenced anywhere within the TLD source.
