I have built my project with maven All builds successful and eclipse properties generation is also successful
But when I open the project in Eclipse 4, I am getting this error
An internal error occurred during: "Loading descriptor for SALYExplorer.".
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.FeatureNotFoundException: Feature 'taglib' not found. (platform:/resource/SALYExplorer/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml, 313, 10)
At that location I have some properties
Though the project runs smoothly and everything is fine, just while exploring the project in Navigation pane, Eclipse always throws this error box (quite annoying).
COde at that location
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>xx.tld</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/tld/xx.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
and xx definations int it's file
<!DOCTYPE taglib PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JSP Tag Library 1.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-jsptaglibrary_1_2.dtd">
<taglib>
<tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>
<jsp-version>1.2</jsp-version>
.........
</taglib>
Answer
The problem is not the taglib at all, it's just a bad error description by Eclipse.
it is the project facet vs. web.xml dtd.. their versions must match!
if the web.xml says:
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
but the project has a
"Dynamic Web Module 2.5"
then this error will occur.. change facet to 2.3 or web.xml to 2.5... in other words: they must match..
