Re: JSF CDI code assist
I have narrowed down the breakage of the code completion for CDI beans.
It occurs when using the jakarta ee 9 api, when the "javax" package name
changed to the "jakarta" package name. Projects that use the "javax" API
have working code completion in JSF/JSP EL.
Creating a project (gradle or ant) against Jakarta EE 8 (still using
javax.* packages) has functioning code completion for CDI beans within
JSF/JSP page expressions.
Creating a project (gradle or ant) against Jakarta EE 9 (using new
jakarta.* packages) has broken code completion for CDI beans within
JSF/JSP page expressions.
I think this may be something to file a bug report for.
Thanks for all the feeback!

projects. The code completion DOES work when using an older Java EE
API project.
Has anybody else observed this behavior? While it's not a
deal-breaker, because it does not affect building, it does add much
time to development because I have to open any referenced classes and
flip back and forth between them all to ensure I get the methods name
correct. This is a very big annoyance that I'd like to figure out a
remedy to quickly.

1. Created new Gradle Web project (declared dependency for jakarta

2. Created a CDI Bean (using @Named and @SessionScoped annotations),
"SampleBean" with a sample method, "(get|set)SampleString," returning
a String.
3. Defined the JSF servlet within web.xml
4. Edit the JSF page (.xhtml) and added a JSF EL reference to my
Sample Bean, #{sampleBean.sampleString}
The project built and packaged as a WAR successfully and deployed and
executed in GlassFish 6.2.2 as expected.
However, when I use code completion (Ctl-Space) within the JSF EL I
do not see my CDI bean as an option to select nor does code
completion work to show me the methods of the CDI bean after I type
the bean name. Code completion works on all tags, even when using a
framework such as PrimeFaces, just not with my custom CDI beans
within JSF EL.
I have tried a work-around mentioned for a JSP issue by editing my
Gradle build script to include the webapp source in the java
sourceSet, but this does not resolve the issue.
Thank you,
Jason

Re: JSF CDI code assist
Thanks for the message and sorry for the issues Jason. Along with the other
suggestions that were mentioned, have you attempted to create a Maven project
using Jakarta EE?
I also had similar issues when trying Jakarta EE 9.1 (jakarta.*) namespace.
However, I was using PrimeFaces 10, which I later determined was not
compatible. I'll need to try again now with PrimeFaces 11 to see if EL code
completion works.

Re: JSF CDI code assist
Your not using the version with the new Jakarta namespace instead of the javaee
namespace are you?

So if you open a legacy project, the behavior works? But with a new project, it
does not?
Have you tried "cloning" the working project to see if it works today? Can you
replicate your "SampleBean" example based on the older project? How do the new
project and the old projects differ?
And, honestly, it is a deal breaker. Otherwise you may as well be using a
"dumb" editor. Auto complete is part and parcel to the modern IDE experience.
