    I just updated myeclipse ide from workbench 4 to 5. I see that F3 key which use to earlier show the definition of the method ot declaration of the variable now prompts “the resource is not on the build path of a java project”. I have no clue on what to do.

    Help help. 😥

    Piyush,
    If you hold down the CTRL key and click on the variable or method, is this what you wanted? (that behavior?)

    I also lost this functionality (F3 == Ctrl-click) to jump to the definition of a var or method
    when I added the latest workbench. What’s the solution?

    Hold down the CTRL key and Left click should jump you to the definition. Does this work for you?

    Riyad,

    No, that does not work for me. That’s why I put (F3 == ctrl-click) in my original post.
    They are equivalent and they both don’t work.

    Is this a web project or a Java project? If you open the project properties and go down to MyEclipse, which icons are enabled (indicating capbailities)?

    When class/method resolution fails it’s almost always due to lack of web capabilities and myEclipse cannot resolve the paths correctly.

    I have no capabilities installed. None of the icons are active. But, I am trying to work with a Java project, not a properly configured/imported web project. I have both Eclipse 3.1.2 and 3.2 versions installed. Each of these has the appropriate workbench. I’m going to uninstall the 4.1 workbench and see if this functionality returns.

    Carlos,
    Are you referring to functionality in the Java Editor or JSP editor? I was under the impression you meant the JSP editor. We don’t instrument the Java editor in anyway, I don’t know what would cause that to stop functioning.
