Build 200409151800. When I type "<%" there is no "<%=" entry on the code completion list. There are only: include, page, taglib. I would expect an "<%=" entry to insert the following code: <%=|%> where | represents caret position.
Actually, to be consistent, the entry on the CC list should look like this: "<%=%>".
Yep, I agree. Should work for all of the following: <%= %> <% %> <%! %> <%-- --%> <!-- --> (after typing < ) ${ } (after typing $ )
I'm sorry, but we are not able to fix this in the 4.0. There is missing <%! %> as well. We need rewrite a part of the code completotin, so it can be done in prome-e.
Pardon the ignorance, but what is "promo-E"?
Promo-E will be next release of netbeans. Netbeans 4.0 is promo-D, so we can expect that promo-E will be Netbeans 4.1. I'm only thinking, that adding this functionality should be risky for this release. So I suggest to add this in the next release.
According to the roadmap, work on the 4.1 version has already started. Is that true, and if so, is it possible to download 4.1 preview?
Back to subject, now that I'm testing 4.1.
I will take a look at it. However Cezariusz, I do not understand your last comment much :-(
You mean "Back to subject, now that I'm testing 4.1."? That means, that while testing various features for NetCAT program, I've recalled that old issue again, so I've added 41cat prefix.
Yep, I ment that one :-). I missed the summary change. Thanks.
Still doesn't work in build 200509251800. Interesting thing, when I type "<", on the CC list there are entries like "<% @include %>", "<%@page %>", but when I add "%", the list becomes empty. So having "<%" when I call CC a get "No suggestions" even if there were 3 items matching.
The problem with <% CC prefix not offering anything is caused by the new CC API adoption. Should be fixed to 5.0
Partially fixed - the <%| + CC now correctly offer the jsp directives. I will try to add following items into the CC to 5.0: <% %> <%= %> <%! %> <%-- --%> <!-- --> <%-- --> ${ }
Can somebody investigate if the new code completion API allows to fix this easily ?
No time for this now, it is also potentially dangerous change. Moreover it never worked - it is rather an enhancement.
*** Issue 82642 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
<% %> <%= %> <%! %> already works, the rest needs to be done: <%-- --%> <!-- --> <%-- --> ${ }
Doesn't seem to be much useful.
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss
