-------------------------------------------

    Description: 
[Problem] The javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.* are not listed in the exported packages 
list

[Workaround]  javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.* is not a standard spec API in Java EE , 
its implementation varies with different app server, that's why eclipse doesn't 
include javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.* by default. So if you want to make it appear 
on exported package list, you should import jstl implement bundle into 
workspace, for example, import  geronimo jstl-1.2_1.jar and  
geronimo-el_2.2.jar under 
$server_home/repository/org/apache/geronimo/bundles/jstl/1.2_1&$server_home/repository/org/apache/geronimo/specs/geronimo-el_2.2_spec,
 then you can select jstl from export package list.

[Solution]  Your suggestion would work. But then it is hard to import each and 
every jar that you would depend on, to your workspace.
The recommended way is to set the workspace target platform to point to the 
target server jars location.
You can do that by going to Windows > Preferences >  Plug-in Development > 
Target Platform and select Add and point to the location that contains your 
Geronimo jars (assuming these jars have a Manifest that exports the packages 
within the jar). and Click OK.
This would allow your application to compile against all of the jars, and can 
import any package that is exported by any of them. Another advantage is that 
would ensure your application would resolve these dependencies when you deploy 
to that server.
In RAD we do this step automatically when you target WAS 8 or WAS 7 server. In 
the OSGi free tools, users have to do this step manually.
