Hi,

I just want to know, is it possible to do any kind of programming inside JET templates either using scriptlets or JSP tags?

Thank you,

Asha.

Asha:

M2T JET supports Scriptlets and tag libraries. That is, you can write Java scriptlets:

<% java-code-goes-here %>

Java expressions:

<%= java-expression %>

Java declarations:

<%! Java-method-or-instance-variable-declarations %>

Tag libraries are defined via Eclipse extension points - they are not JSP tag libraries (which have explicit dependencies on the Java servlet APIs). JET provides four standard tag libraries:

control tags - basic control flow and model access tags
format tags - for formatting content
java tags - for generating Java content
workspace tags - for writing content to the Eclipse workspace

You can find the tag library documentation here:

http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/topic/org.eclipse.jet.doc/re ferences/taglibs/index.xhtml

You can, of course, contribute your own tag libraries by contributing plug-ins that extend this extension point:

http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/topic/org.eclipse.jet.doc/re ferences/extensionpoints/org_eclipse_jet_tagLibraries.html

Does this help?
