How to enable code completion in Netbeans 6.8 for facelets in JSF 1.2?

Question

I want to enable code completion for facelets + JSF 1.2 in NetBeans 6.8. I would prefer to enable it for a free form project that I create using my own Ant build.xml, but I don’t see any options to enable it, so I’m ready to go with a "web application with existing sources". "

Sorry for all the screenshots. I just want to show what I did.

Project setup

Project configuration

After setting up and configuring code completion in feeds, it still doesn't work.

Am I missing something? Am I going about it wrong?

Decision

Here is what I ended up doing:

• I switched from a standard Java project to a web project (duh!)
• I took Awano's advice and switched the MIME type for xhtml files back to text / xhtml.
• I added the tld file from the facelets website to the meta-inf directory in jsf-facelets.jar and included it in my project.

• I added the rendered attribute to the fragment tag in the jsf-ui.tld file. For some reason he was absent:

  <attribute> <name>rendered</name> <required>false</required> <rtexprvalue>false</rtexprvalue> <description>Renders the contents of this tag if the attribute resolves to true.</description> </attribute> 

Answer 1

Have you added facelet files to the project property libraries? Otherwise, check that in Tools / Options / Miscellaneous / Files that xhtml is associated with MIME XHTML (text / xhtml).
