[wtp-dev] Servlet 3.0 support in Helios

["Raev, Kaloyan" <kaloyan.raev@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

There is some confusion about the Servlet 3.0 support in the Helios release. This is because of bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/252616, which for some reason we forgot and was seen in the project plan as deferred to Future during the whole Helios development.

 

In fact, in Helios we implemented Servlet 3.0 support as part of other

enhancements and bugs:

  - Web project can be created upon the Servlet 3.0 spec.

  - Web artifacts (servlets, filter, etc.) are generated with Servlet 3.0

annotations

  - Internals models in WTP are updated for the Servlet 3.0 spec.

  - Import/Exports mechanisms are updated for the Servlet 3.0 use case.

  - Web fragments are supported.

 

Here is list of bugs that covers the above:

 

https://bugs.eclipse.org/290033 - Default model providers for Java EE 6 facets

https://bugs.eclipse.org/252615 - Java EE 6 models

https://bugs.eclipse.org/252618 - Update Java EE artifact wizards for Java EE 6

https://bugs.eclipse.org/299747 - Project Explorer metadata content for Java EE 6 projects

https://bugs.eclipse.org/272014 - Define facet and facet version for web fragments

https://bugs.eclipse.org/258191 - Ensure EE6 archives can be imported/exported and are supported in

binary mode

https://bugs.eclipse.org/290040 - Java EE 6 Project creation for core module types

https://bugs.eclipse.org/252613 - Define facet versions for the Java EE 6 projects

 

I hope this clarifies the situation.
