Petr Lindovsky commented on JBIDE-830:
--------------------------------------

When looking at beta4, I can see the same problem as before: When I invoke Red Hat Developer Studio > Add JSF Capabilities... from the popup menu on the project, I get a wizard page which asks me to enter the file system path to /toy_firstjsf/WebContent/WEB-INF/web.xml - but as it's only a file in a linked directory. Maybe I ignore the wizard and add the JSF capabilities manually but I don't know how to fill in the .settings/org.jboss.tools.jst.web.xml file.

> I have a Web project (originally developed in another IDE) where the META-INF and WEB-INF directories are located directly under the root of the project (e.g. next to src). 
> So I can't take the project root as the web content directory. To make this work with Europa, I created a new WebConent directory under the root and added folder links there pointing to the existing META-INF and WEB-INF. This now works in Europa. 
> Is it possible to add RedHat JSF support to this? This wizard doesn't seem to take this into account.
> I created a project where you can see the problem: It works in Europa (you can use Export > WAR file and Run As > Run On Server) but I don't know hat to make it work with the RedHat JSF support.
> (Note: I used absolute paths in the links in the project; in reality we used path variables to enable sharing.)
