                 Key: JBIDE-2621
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-2621
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Plan
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0.alpha
            Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen
            Assignee: Snjezana Peco
             Fix For: 3.0.0.beta1


The portlet wizards today seem to require the projects it generate code into is a faceted portlet project.
We should not require that for the wizards since the generated code makes perfect sense to do on users own existing java projects.

Suggestion: Allow to generate for all type of projects and add a checkbox (or multiple if needed) about the actions that require portlet project. e.g. a checkbox for updating web.xml. It would be enabled by default for portlet projects, but disabled for non-portlet projects and if the user selects them we give an error message (in the wizard title pane) about updating web.xml not being possible when the project does not have portlet or maybe just web project enabled ? (alternatively you can completely disable the checkbox and just make it tooltip contain the info that "Updating web.xml is not possible on non-portlet/web projects" so the user can at least be informed why somethings are not working)
