Improved JSF Container support
The Visual JSP Designer now has better support for complex JSF components like <h:panelGrid> or <h:dataTable>. There are still some known issues with these types of components in design view that are listed in the MyEclipse 5.0 GA Release notes.
Multiple Browser Preview
The preview support in the Visual JSP/HTML Designer has been expanded to include support for multiple browsers. Now instead of just one Preview page, there is one preview for each time of supported browser for your platform.
- Windows: Internet Explorer and Mozilla
- Linux: Mozilla only
- Mac OS X: Safari only
By default, all of the preview pages that your platform supports will be enabled. However, you configure which preview pages are shown through the Visual Designer preference page.
Older JSP/HTML Designer and 'Classic' Editor now deprecated
The previous JSP and HTML Designers and 'Classic' JSP and HTML Editor that were available in versions of MyEclipse prior to 5.0 GA have been deprecated and are no longer shipped with MyEclipse 5.0 GA.
New MyEclipse Visual HTML Designer (Windows and Linux Only)
In MyEclipse 5.0, the new MyEclipse Visual HTML Designer has been made the default HTML editor. This replaces both the older version of the Eclipse HTML Designer that has been in MyEclipse since 4.0 and the HTML 'Classic' Editor that has been in MyEclispe since 3.8.
Benefits of the new Visual HTML Designer:
- Speed increase: The performance of Source/Design synchronization operations have improved dramatically over the previous HTML Designer.
- Increased Reliability: Editing in both source and design view now is much more reliable and will maintain the integrity of your edit operations.
- Cross-platform support: The Visual Designer now supports both Windows and Linux. Mac OS X support is planned for a future release.
