    Hi

    JSP code completion works great!! Thanks a lot.
    But I have two issues.

    1.
    I have several jsps outside my webroot. But why should myeclipse
    bother with them? It should not try to compile or parse those jsps, or it
    should be an option. If we have our own ant build process which copies
    the jsps to some staging folder, my eclipse tries to compile them too and
    complains :

    Error /eclipse/workspace/myweb/src/MyJsp.jsp) not in base path (C:/eclipse/workspace/myweb/web/) MyJsp.jsp myweb/src line 0

    My view is that it should not go beyond webroot!!

    2.
    The output folder issue: I have a java project with lot of java files and it
    has classes as output folder. I have lot of jsps also in a sub folder. So I
    tried to use myeclipse and tried to web enable by selecting
    “Web Project Configuration….” dialog box.
    Now it takes forever to compile those jsps. I have to kill eclipse.
    Then when I look at the project properties ->Build Path the output path of
    the entire project is changed to webroot/WEB-INF/classes and since I have
    huge # of java files, it seems eclipse tries to recomplie them again into the
    new output folder along with jsps which is not good behaviour. I think
    “Web Project Configuration….” should ask for “web src folder” too.

    myeclipse 2.6.2 (latest 9/10/2003)
    eclipse 2.1.1
    java 1.3.1_08 on Windos 2000

    Thanks

    I agree with Item 1. The directory location where JSPs reside on my projects is determined by the
    Clear Case admin, which is not in Webroot. Being able to handle JSPs outside webroot is desirable!!

    Norm,

    Thanks for the feedback. There is an open enhancement request to increase web project flexibility. I know our team is discussing this feature now.
