Yes, exactly. I assumed those who actually did the new features and/or were mainly responsible for the specific components would like to tell about them ;) /max

Thanks Max, could you attach the file as a zip ? My mail client embed it instead of giving it me the actual file. /max

Ok, here is my list of what's new that I can deduce from jira and trying out latest build (some of these were actually already in 2.0.1 but we didnt do whats new at that point): VPE: * Experimental x86_64 bit builds * EL resolution in VPE for facesContext.requestContextPath (JBIDE-1410) * Performance improvements, caching of templates and removal of memory leaks. * Template system now supports versioning Seam: * Rename folders setup in seam properties and our settings get updated via refactoring (JBIDE-1919) * Seam Find references/declarations via Ctrl+1 in java for arbitrary lookup, Hooked into java search generally and also via Ctrl+G in .xhtml files. (JBIDE-509 and others) * Open Seam Component (JBIDE-518) * Seam model scalability. 30-40 times faster loading of existing Seam projects by caching indexes (JBIDE-1785), Less lookups (JBIDE-1778) * Seam project wizard can now be finished on the first page (JBIDE-1276) * OpenOn works on s:button/s:link@view (JBIDE-1437) * Seam components defined in inner classes supported (JBIDE-1374) * OpenOn works in pages.xml (JBIDE-1110) * Seam 2.1 accepted as runtime, but be carefull ;) (JBIDE-1786) * #{messages} code completion support (JBIDE-1258) ESB: * First cut of an esb.xml editor (JBIDE-1670) AS: * JBoss AS 5 Adapter (JBIDE-1774) * Use JMX Deploymentscanner to ensure proper deployment (JBIDE-1291) JSF: * Validation and code completion now respect "var" attributes in e.g. h:dataTable * Removed need for .settings/org.jboss.tools.jst.web.xml (JBIDE-1820) * Updated templates for Rcifhaces 3.1.x (* Support <ui:param> in included pages (JBIDE-1591)) Hibernate: * Export Diagram as Image (JBIDE-1932) * "Load console configuration" code completion when configuration is not yet loaded (JBIDE-1500) * When user start hql/criteria on entity or property a predefined criteria/hql statement is filled in (JBIDE-1620) * Property sheet shows number of results and query timing info (JBIDE-1465) * Autolayout, Outline and property support in Hibernate Diagram (JBIDE-1417, JBIDE-1413) * Automatic update of HQL/Criteria fetched from Java code (JBIDE-1668) Did I miss anything ? /max

Hello Max, Now it works only for Seam context variables. New "var" feature extends our Seam EL Code Assist and Seam Validator. It does not work for plain JSF projects and usual jsf managed beans. So I think it should be under "Seam:".

Hello Max, We don't have any validation in EL for JSF at all. CA for JSF and Seam are separate because we use separate code assist processors. First one uses JSF model but second one uses Seam model. And I think in the future we should extend our jsf processor and use it in seam tools. If we do so we will be able to move our "var" CA feature to JSF tools. Original feature request (in jira) asked us to improve our seam validator but not to create new one for JSF tools. Lets plan to have such improvement in the future versions.
