I have recently upgraded to Eclipse Platform 2.1.3 and MyEclipse 2.7.1

Using an existing codebase which built without error in a previous version of eclipse (I have changed machines and dont remember the older version), I now get the following compilation error for all JSPs in which a taglib is referenced:

cannot load class: <class name>

My tld is in /WEB-INF and my classes are compiled to /WEB-INF/classes
Also, the taglib autocomplete feature works for all references.

I suspect I am overlooking something, but have been unable to identify what that is and cannot find any useful info on google or the forums.

I have included relevant code snippets below.

From web.xml:

    <!-- TAG LIBRARIES -->
    <taglib>
        <taglib-uri>http://www.acme.com/tags-acme</taglib-uri>
        <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/acme-taglib.tld</taglib-location>
    </taglib>
    <!-- Struts HTML Tag Libraries -->
    <taglib>
        <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld</taglib-uri>
        <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld</taglib-location>
    </taglib>
    <!-- Struts Logic Tag Libraries -->
    <taglib>
        <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld</taglib-uri>
        <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld</taglib-location>
    </taglib>
    <!-- Struts JavaBean Tag Libraries -->
    <taglib>
        <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld</taglib-uri>
        <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld</taglib-location>
    </taglib>
    <!-- Struts Template Tag Libraries -->
    <taglib>
        <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld</taglib-uri>
        <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld</taglib-location>
    </taglib>

From a representative JSP:

. 
.
.
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.acme.com/tags-acme" prefix="at" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-tiles.tld" prefix="tiles" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld" prefix="logic" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>
.
.
.
            <at:AttachmentsAsHtmlRow />
.
.
.

Is it complaining about your Struts tags, or your acme tags? Make sure struts.jar is in your classpath under your Java Build Path settings.

It was only the custom tags.

I upraded to eclpise 3.0.1/myeclipse 3.8.2 and all problems were resolved.

Thanks for the feedback.
