Hi,
I'm having trouble using the "c:include" function, it keeps telling me:
"Error: Could not find template templates/test2.jet"
My template test.jet:
<%@taglib prefix="c" id="org.eclipse.jet.controlTags"%>
bla bla...
<c:include template="templates/test2.jet"/>
more bla bla...
Templates test.jet and test2.jet are in the same templates folder.
If I try including test.jet itself (in place of test2.jet) it works, but
obviously it overflows.
Why test2.jet is not found?
Thanks!
Nick

Nick:
Some things to try:
1) Take a look in the jet2java source folder of your JET project.
Somewhere in there, you will see a _jet_transform.java class. Open this
class, and see whether it has a string to templates/test2.jet. If it
doesn't try rebuilding the JET project, or ensure that you have Auto
Build on in the workspace.
2) Assuming _jet_transform.java looks OK, my next guess is that you
workbench already has an instance of the JET transformation installed as
a plug-in...
Go to Help > About. Click the Plug-ins button (or, with later Eclipse
3.5 builds, click the Installation Details button, and then go to the
plug-ins tab).
Sort the list of plug-ins by ID, and look for the ID of your JET project
(same as the project name be default). If you find it, then there is
trouble...
The reason this is trouble is that JET will not load a JET
transformation from the workspace if there is already an installed
instance of it.
TO fix...
a) If you are running in a runtime workbench (an Eclipse instanced
launched from another Eclipse instance, generally for the purposes of
debugging), check the launch configuration for the runtime workbench. It
may be including your JET project from your development workspace or
from your 'target' environment.
b) Your JET project may have gotten 'stuck' because of a hard failure of
your Eclipse workbench. When JET executes a transformation project, it
temporarily installs the project as a plug-in, runs the templates and
then uninstalls the plug-in. Should something particularly nasty happen,
the plug-in may not get unloaded. You can manually unload it as follows:
i) Exit Eclipse
ii) Open the eclipse.ini file that is in the sample directory as your
eclipse executable. On Windows, you might have to open this file with
WordPad rather than Notepad, as the line separators in this file confuse
Notepad.
iii) On a new line at the top of the file, add the text:
-console
iv) save eclipse.ini, exit your text editor and start Eclipse
v) in addition to your Eclipse workbench appearing, a console window
will also appear. It should have a "osgi>" prompt.
vi) At the "osgi>" prompt, type:
bundles your-JET-project-name-here
If you see your project in the listed output, type:
uninstall your-JET-project-name-here
Once this is complete, re-execute the above bundles command to confirm
your JET project is not longer installed.
You should now be able to execute the JET project that is in your workspace.
Let me know if this helps,
Paul

_jet_transformation.java is ok, it contains:
addTemplate("templates/common/test2.jet","my.jet.test.JetParticles.test2 " ); //$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$
Maybe it's nothing, but I override the generation of the java file to
generate it as "test2.java" and not "_jet_test2.java" and to a
"JetParticles" folder and not to the standard "compiled" folder. May
this cause any troubles?

Actually, my runtime workbench (not the eclipse workspace from which I
run my application) runs my transfromation plugin, but it's done on
purpose.
From my application I need to access the "generate" method in the
generated jets (ie: test2.java), if I don't load the plugin I can't
access it.
You say: "JET will not load a JET transformation from the workspace
if there is already an installed instance of it", but I don't want to
load a jet transformation (intended as my whole transformation project),
I wish only to include a jet template in another one (<c:include
template="templates/test2.jet"/>)
Maybe I'm just misunderstanding your explaination.

As said, I need to load the transfromation project as a plug in.
To be more precise (hopefully): I have an eclipse workspace that
contains some emf models, my application project and the
transformation jet project (with the templates and the generated java
files), then I run my application, which loads the models and the jet
project, from which I need the jet generated java classes.

I've done , but I don't see my project.

That should be fine. I assume you can see
my.jet.test.JetParticles.test2, too.

Hmmm. You are calling the generate methods directly? Then, I bet you are
directly creating an instance of JET2Context, too. If I'm right, do this
before you run your first template...
TransformContextExtender.getInstance( your-jet2context-here
).setTemplateLoader(new _jet_transformation() );
// _jet_transformation this is the class you inspected above..
And, if you don't like the name of that class, open plugin.xml, and
change the templateLoaderClass to something more appealing.
Let me know if this helps.
