Philip Durbin created NETBEANS-84:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Support for JSF 2.3
Key: NETBEANS-84
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-84
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: javaee - JSF
Affects Versions: 8.2, 9.0, Next
Reporter: Philip Durbin
Priority: Minor
Attachments: netbeans-red-jsf2.3.png
One thing that struck me while attending Ed Burns' JSF talk[1] about JSF 2.3 at
JavaOne 2017 was a comment he made that autocompletion isn't working in
Netbeans for JSF 2.3 features. I would describe this as NetBeans 8.2 showing
"angry red" for components it doesn't understand, such as f:validateWholeBean.
As in the attached screenshot, an example error is "The component library Jsf
Core does not contain component validateWholeBean".
Here's the code from the screenshot:
https://github.com/javaee/glassfish-samples/blob/4b3a37500a256bb7d94e2abe273503c9fb017c6b/ws/javaee8/jsf/ee8additions/src/main/webapp/validateWholeBean.xhtml
In the past, NetBeans releases were coordinated with Java EE releases. When
Java EE 8 came out, I expected that NetBeans 9 would come out and support JSF
2.3. When we onboard new developers, I would rather not say to them, "It's ok
to see angry red like this in NetBeans."
Incidentally, during Ed's talk I asked if he knew if JSF 2.3 is supported by
IntelliJ or Eclipse and he wasn't aware if they support it or not.
