I’m a newbie; if I’ve missed documentation in some obvious place kindly just steer me in the right direction.
My client wants an economical, high productivity Java development environment for at least the web tier and potentially EJB. So far, MyEclipse looks like it fills the bill in many regards. However, there’s a variety of options I’m looking into; I’m not clear on the extent of support for various frameworks currently available in the product.
For example, does it support JavaServer Faces? Also, the reference implementation of JSF basically expects to run under JWSDP.
has anyone got Java Web Services Developer Pack to run under MyEclipse’s Tomcat 5 connector?When I try bringing up JWSDP’s version of Tomcat under MyEclipse I get a ClassNotFound exception when it tried to load the bootstrap. I wound up backing out JWSDP and using unbundled Tomcat instead–which comes up just fine. Can someone tell me how to bring up JWSDP?
Also, does MyEclipse offer any support for Tapestry?
An obvious question, but bear in mind I’m a newbie: can I configure the MyEclipse editor to support an arbitrary DTD that I supply–with validation, context completion, etc. For Tapestry documents, for instance? Howabout support of an arbitrary XML-Schema?
And now, a REALLY obvious question: how do I turn on XML preview mode?
Many thanks,
Owen, let me see if I can clear some things up:

JSF support is planned for a preview in 2.8 and full support by 2.9 (comming months). I’m not aware of the changes Sun makes to the version of Tomcat they are shipping with the dev pack. What is the exactly class exception you are getting? You can adjust the JARs added to the classpath via the Tomcat connector that you setup already to launch the app server. Under the “Paths” node you can add some of the extra JWSDP JARs to the classpath and see if that ifxed your problem.

No, but if you need good Tapestry support, check out Spindle (http://spindle.sf.net)

DTD autocomplete/validation/etc is fully integrated. If your file has a DTD, we will support it. We currently do not support Schemas, but this is high on the priority list.
And now, a REALLY obvious question: how do I turn on XML preview mode?
There is no XML ‘preview’ mode persay. While you are editing XML source, you will have an outline view (typical of a XML Spy or equiavalent ‘design view’) of the XML structure. With struts-config files, you get a specialized outline view as well as a Flow View that shows you the structure and flow of the struts-config file.
If you mean JSP preview, then while you are editing your JSP page, down on the bottom of the editor window, you should see two tiny tabs. One of them is called ‘preview’, just go ahead and switch between the code and preview tags as you work.
Please let us know if you have any more questions, that is what we are here for.
