gsp generic template

[douglasv]

when I create a gsp I get a blank page

where can I create a generic gsp template in the
sts 2.3 editor?

also , if I type a tag and close that tag, then hit enter, the editor only brings the tag to the next line
which I have to hit enter again to be able to type between the open and close tag.

The new GSP wizard does not support templates. However, this is a very reasonable feature to have, and perhaps we should implement it.

What kind of templates would you like to see?

I'm not exactly sure what you mean here, and what is the behavior that you expect to see?

What are the steps you are taking? Do they include content assist?

using say netbeans

if I type def user = {

}

if I type def user = and an opening brace , then hit enter,
I get the above syntax, my cursor blinking between the braces

[Andrew Eisenberg]

Editor support for closing braces and other things like indentation and formatting are on the roadmap for Groovy-Eclipse 2.1. This is work that we will get to. See the roadmap:

Also, please let me know what you'd expect to see for templates.

normally I've been getting stubs; controller, services, domain...
which is all that is expected

again in netbeans, for .gsp files you get
a full blown html stub file, waiting to be edited.

also, something no-one seems to have is support for
the -"g namespace"- which includes code and angle-bracket completion.

as well as the ability to recognize any name spaces I create
since this is convention , this should be a piece of cake.

This is not available yet, but could be something we will implement in the future. I will raise an enhancement request for this.

This is basically available in the current snapshot version. Custom taglibs and taglibs from plugins that define their own namespaces are available in content assist. There are some quirks, but it is mostly available.

Also, after typing a $ , curly braces and any nested quotes etc
usually do not close, but the ide types the single keystroke,
if preceeded by a char you wouldn't expect that though

Is the following possible?

vmware's guest on the host machine can speak directly to the "CPU' for time/memory allocation!

can you use their (code gizmo) to read the cpu's register's directly
to populate the ide's editor,
(after first running it by the framework's specific enforcer.)

Then the fog produced could be sent to be clarified before being sent
to the cpu
