ICEsoft.org Forums: ICEfaces, ICEmobile, ICEpdf

Hi,

I had a problem with the Palette in the Web Page Editor in Eclipse Galileo

I installed all the plugins - but there where no descriptions for the ICEfaces components in the palette. This made a bit hard for a beginner to guess what all the icons meant.

I found that if I changed the id tag in the icefaces_component.xml file located in my <Eclipse-install-dir>\plugins\com.icesoft.ide.eclipse.designtime_3.6.2.200910012033\metadata folder I got the descriptions working.

I changed the value from : id="http://www.icesoft.com/icefaces/component"
to : id="http://www.icefaces.org/component"

Is this an error in the plug-in? Or did I go wrong somewhere else?

As for descriptions for icefaces components in palette, do you mean the description text in tooltip when mouse over icefaces component in palette?

I attached a snapshot of my Eclipse workbench.

So by description I mean all of the text i the red square was missing. Hope that makes sense :)

If tooltip on ICEfaces palette items works, the detail view of ICEfaces components description should work. You shouldn't need to change id. If you change id of one metadata file, ids of all other metadata files for ICEfaces have to be changed according as well. Unfortunately I cannot replicate this issue. I wonder if anybody else here have experienced this issue?

I just observed that my colleague didn't have the same problem. I have now changed the id back and everything still works.
