Re: [faces-dev] [External] : Re: [wtp-dev] Regarding using JSF4 in Eclipse
Hi,

I used to develop with Eclipse up to Java JSF 2.3 for javax.
Moving forward with Jakarta, I've had to use Intellij as it supports Jakarta Faces.

For Jakarta, the current Eclipse doesn't have any JSF facet support, it's still stuck on JSF 2.3 and javax namespace.

I refer to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=574122

When attempting to use a Jakarta.* library, Eclipse can only use javax.*

How does one get hold of the Eclipse source so to update it to work with Jakarta faces?

Cheers

Jon

Hi,

There is a sort of replacement project for EE support in the following: 


Activity dropped somewhat last december, but overall seems to be active. My gut feeling says this may take some time to mature, but for people interested in contributing to tooling this may be a good project to look into.

Additionally maybe people want to attempt raising funds to keep Eclipse support for Eclipse technologies up to date. I know it sounds weird, but Eclipse is obviously just an open source foundation. So, Eclipse supporting Eclipse itself is not necessarily a given because of the broad range of projects they host.

Kind regards,
Arjan Tijms

I certainly noticed that JBoss Tools dropped support. If I understood it correctly, their position seems to be "it's no problem, you can just use WTP". In case anyone is interested, the JBoss Tools' issue about the deprecation is https://issues.redhat.com/projects/JBIDE/issues/JBIDE-28678 .
