Hi Denny,
Ok - so this looks like I feared.
IMO It is ok for WTP to *add* methods for better behavior but it is
not ok to change an existing public api/methods behavior.
At least not with a really really good reason - so we need to find what
their reason was if any.
Let me know when you have created the bug so we can make WTP-dev aware of
it.

Unfortunately, it will not work in earlier versions :-( .

Other JBT project may not have the same issue because those project are
based on Dynamic Web Project,
so the sort of creating a Virtualcomponent work is done by Dynamic Web
project, WTP changes all their
creating Virtualcomponent way by using the new method in WTP 3.03 when
creating a new Web project or J2ee project.
The issue is: in early WTP versions, it should use the following way
to create the VirtualComponent:
final IVirtualComponent c = ComponentCore.createComponent(project);
and in WTP 3.03, we have to do it by: final IVirtualComponent c =
ComponentCore.createComponent(project, false);
the *false* parameter is a flag that whether to check a configure file
exist or not, in our scenario , it should not check.
and the *ComponentCore.createComponent(project, false) * method is not
exist in early versions.
for now, the ComponentCore.createComponent(project) works as
ComponentCore.createComponent(project, true),
if it can be changed to work as ComponentCore.createComponent(project,
false), it will works and it's reasonable ,
I will raise a bug to wtp, if they can change their implementation, that
would be good, if they wouldn't change, we have to try
to check if the componentCore has the method using refect way.
