1. Re: Confused about Seam/JSF/Facelets Tools - Seeking some Gu
svadu Jan 29, 2007 4:22 AM (in response to terryb)I use Exadel eclipse plugin to work with JSF/Facelets and MyEclipse to work with JSF navigations (it visualizes them). I think if you install exadel plugin you should be fine.

kukeltje Jan 29, 2007 4:42 PM (in response to terryb)The exadel plugin is less usable with seam since
- it does not know about the annotations and therefor has no codecompletion, validation
- does not know how to visually display seam tags
- ...
Since I do not use jsf pageflow with seam (jpdl) and therefore this plugin becomes less and less usable.
I personally am looking into Taylor at the moment (http://taylor.sf.net) in addition to exadel. This guy is doing some nice work I think -

terryb Jan 29, 2007 7:05 PM (in response to terryb)Thank you guys for the response. I think many seam starters are in my position. who look at seam for seam+jsf+facelets+xhtml development; but get go around the circles trying to workout dev tool that delivers this functionality.
I will appreciate more responses from experiences with dev tools in this area.
as I understand JBoss recommend above seam+jsf+facelets+xhtml combination; so it will be nice if they can also say ...we recommend this single dev environment or set of tools to develop a solution from start to end.... -

vladimir.kovalyuk Jan 29, 2007 8:03 PM (in response to terryb)Although I didn't find anything about Seam in JIRA JBIDE
I hope eventually JBOSS IDE will be shipped with Seam plugins. -

I do have code completion and validation (as well as recognision of annotations). Although I have MyEclipse installed next to exadel which can be the reason why I have it."kukeltje" wrote:

True, this problem exist. Although I don't have much troubles with it."kukeltje" wrote:

Are you using only pages.xml? That's interesting as JBoss guys (I think it was Gavin) said that pages.xml is normally used for wizards, so I guess you must have pretty specific application."kukeltje" wrote:

Yep that one looks interesting. -
