[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-5974) Add JSF Capabilities not preserved after restart

[ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-5974?page=com.atlassian.jira.plu... ] Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-5974: ---------------------------------------------- JSF Capability is based on Web Dynamic Project and not any faceted project can be converted to it. For example specific facets of ESB project, JPA project etc. are not compatible with 'jst.web' facet of dynamic web project. I have studied our code and found that it just avoids adding 'jst.web' facet to an existing faceted project because in 99% of cases it is going to fail anyway (with a message like 'Dynamic Web Module 2.5 and JBoss ESB 4.5 cannot both be selected.'). But there exists at least one case when adding 'jst.web' facet is successful, and it is the case of this issue - the faceted project does not declare any facets. So, this issue may be fixed by simple trying to add 'jst.web' facet if it is missing. Such a fix will not make worse any other case. When it fails, it would mean that the project is not Web Dynamic Project, and at the next start of Eclipse JSF model will not be able to obtain web root from it (after Add JSF Capability wizard it took it from input and tried to save with 'jst.web' facet), so jsfnature will be removed as corrupted. But it is exactly what happens now, only exceptions are different. This simple fix is safe for 3.1.1. It will be smarter to improve validation in Add JSF Capability wizard, and check if it is safe to try and add missing 'jst.web' facet, and if answer is negative report to wizard error message area of impossibility to add JSF capabilities to the project, and disable finish button. I think it also can be done for 3.1.1. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
