I'd like to suggest an enhancement to the IDE in terms of right clicking a context menu from the source editor and have the IDE automatically create in a JSP page the necessary scriptlet code, JSTL or custom JSP tag to call an Enterprise Java Bean(Session Bean/Entity Bean) rather than having to create the code myself from scratch. This capability only exists from a servlet class (not the servlet class translated from a JSP page) or Java class in general. Is this capability in the works or is there a logical reason why it does not exist in NetBeans 4.1? Scott
It is not possible to have it in 5.0. High resistance mode starts on Sunday and UI freeze was many weeks ago. Sorry.
One reason is you shouldn't put this functionality as call EJB, .... in view. Use rather business delegeate pattern. This pattern reduces coupling between presentation-tier clients and business services. The Business Delegate hides the underlying implementation details of the business service, such as lookup and access details of the EJB architecture.
There is an inconsistency - you can create code for EJB lookup in Servlet and cannot in JSP.
Obsolete milestone, please reevaluate
