jst.jar not put on build-path by JBoss tools server adapter
-----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBIDE-5836
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-5836
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JBossAS
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0.CR1
         Environment: Mac OS X 10.5.7 / Ubuntu 9.10 (JDK 6u18) / JBoss AS 5.1
            Reporter: henk de boer
            Assignee: Rob Stryker


The WTP adapter provided by JBoss Tools 3.1.0.CR1 (via JBossAS Tools 2.1.0.v200912250601M-H198-CR1) fails to put the jar "jstl.jar" on the build-path for projects targeting the "JBoss Community/JBoss 5.1 Runtime".

This particular jar is located in [JBoss AS install dir]/server/default/deploy/jbossweb.sar for the default config.

The omission of this jar file on the build-path is particularly troublesome, since it contains interfaces required by the Java EE 5 specification. Many projects will likely need this jar for the definition of the "http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" URI in the core JSTL .tld. Without the jstl.jar being present, every JSP page using JSTL will be flagged as containing errors by WTP.

I tested the omission of this jar on both a large existing WTP project as well as a new project created in a new workspace. I also tested with the JBoss server adapter that's bundled with WTP and this one indeed does put jstl.jar correctly on the build-path.
