Unknown Tag [message #475190] Fri, 16 November 2007 14:44 Go to next message

Hi gang,

I followed the tutorial here:
http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/jsf/docs/tutorial/JSFTools_1 _0_tutorial.html
best I could.

However, when I have a simple JSP page, I get two types of errors:
For the taglibs:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
It says "Cannot find the tag library descriptor for
http://java.sun.com/jsf/core (or html).

For the rest of the JSF tags, all the tags come us as warnings with:
Unknown tag (f:view) for example.

I have downloaded an extracted the tomcat 6.0 runtime and added it to
this project. Could it be a library issue? Any ideas?

Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Jack

Hi Jack,

The most likely scenario is that the JSF tag libraries are not on the
classpath. This can be confirmed if you do not see JSF Core and JSF HTML
categories in the Web Page Editor palette. The palette will display a
category for each tag library located on the project classpath.

Chances are you need to revisit the step of creating a JSF Library and
adding it as a reference to the web project. These steps can be done by
visiting the Java Build Path property page for the project and defining
and adding the JSF library with the necessary sets of jars. You may also
need to visit the J2EE Module Dependencies property page to set the
library/libraries to for deployment if these sets of jars are not
available on the server shared classpath.

I hope that this helps.

Turns out that I do see both JSF Core and JSF HTML categories in the WPE.

In looking at both of these properties, JSF libraries exist in both.

Any more ideas?

Hi Jack,

If you are seeing the JSF palette categories, then it appears that your
project classpath is set up correctly. Although I am pretty confident
that you will see them, can you verify that the JSF libaries are appearing
in the project navigator?

The JSP page tag library validation and the tag content assist is provided
by the SSE editor team. Unfortunately I am going to need to ask you to
post your problem on eclipse.webtools newsgroup unless someone from the
SSE team is monitoring this thread.

After playing around with the libraries, doing a clean build it seems to
work fine now! I am very happy. Thanks for you help Gerry! I look
forward to playing with this.

I suspect you ran afoul of bug 174513 and that the Error messages
were from the JSP validator at a time when the JSF libraries were
not yet on the build path. Although the JSP editor (and possibly
the Web Page Editor) would notice their addition almost immediately,
re-validation of your existing JSPs doesn't get triggered automatically.

Good to hear you're past it, though.
