Description zikmund 2005-01-28 08:57:54 UTC

Build 200501271900

1) Create new Project With Existing Ant Script
2) Go to 4th page
3) Choose web pages folder as directory without
WEB-INF/web.xml file (it can be placed somewhere else)
4) ERROR:
User should be warned, that JSP editor will mark
JSPs using tag libraries as with errors (i.e. it
will not work properly). It is strongly
recommended to place at least fake WEB-INF/web.xml
file there.

It affects project's properties | Web Sources too.
Changing summary and subcomponent.

This issue is also related to issue #61895.

This was resolved by issue 61895 - web pages and WEB-INF folder can be different folders.
