I had this in another thread but it was marked closed, so posting here.

I've tried your test project for JSTL at

http://www.u.arizona.edu/~rsk/myeclipse/TestJSTL1.1.zip

, but I noticed you didn't have the JSTL 1.1 TLD files in your WEB-INF. It seems that if you try and use the the 1.1 TLD files the TLD editor seems to think these files are malformed in some way. Or atleast that is what I am getting.

The error reported in the problem description is...
"cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'taglib'"

Is there anything special required to get the MyElcipse TLD editor to recognize schema based tld files?

Roy,

If the new files refer to a custom schema you should add them to the XML Catalog at Window > Preferences > MyEclipse > Editors > XML > XML Catalog.

These are the standard TLD files from sun for the JSTL 1.1 Taglibraries coming from the JWSDP distribution. I even see the entry in the XML Catalog referring to the appropriate schema location.

http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-jsptaglibrary_2_0.xsd

do Taglibraries for the latest servlet spec not work?

to recreate what I'm seeing. Take the TestJSTL1.1 project i mentioned and import the JSTL 1.1 tld files into the WEB-INF directory.

What version of MyEclipse are you using for this evaluation?

I am not able to replicate this behavior with the latest ME 3.8.2 release.

Eclipse Platform

Version: 3.0.1
Build id: 200409161125Eclipse Platform

MyEclipse Help Documentation

Version: 3.8.2
Build id: 200409171200-3.8.2

Windows Server 2003

The steps I followed ...

1) created a webproject.

2) imported jstl.jar and standard.jar from the latest download of Java Web Services Developer Pack.

3) imported c.tld from the same web services developer pack.

4) problem marker shows up on c.tld.

I can however import c-1_0.tld with out any problems.

Thanks for the help.

I figured it out..

the tld's from Sun have this in the xsi:schemalocation

xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee web-jsptaglibrary_2_0.xsd"

however if you change it to

xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-jsptaglibrary_2_0.xsd"

the problem markers go away.

I would assume both are probably valid but tld editor only likes the latter version.

Thanks for the feedback. In my 1st reply I tried the exact steps using with JSTL 1.1 (standard 1.2 from Jakarta) and it worked w/o issue. So I was assuming either the TLD or something else was incorrect. I'm glad this is working for you.
