If you use Eclipse you should check out the html template functions. As a team you could define how you were going to use various components and then set them up so it autocompletes.

Once you have one machine setup correctly, you can export it out to the other developers.

I did this a few times with T4 and it worked really well. (You can see it in action if you can find the 10 minute demonstration of Honeycomb. Javaforge moved a bunch of stuff around and I don't know if you can still get to it or not.)

The IDE isn't doing anything particularly hard, but for someone starting with Tapestry it really reduces the amount of time they have to spend going back and forth to the documentation.

Yeah.... that could be nice. I'm still confused about your statement
that this kind of support exists in Idea. In fact I'm quite sure this
level of support has never existed for any version of Tapestry.

Basically, we need the auto-completion support for built-in &
user-defined
components

For instance, when you write a component , a list of available parameters
pop up for you to choose

this way, we save more time from consulting the documents.

In addition, IDE can provide a toolbar of built-in components, and we can
drag it to the template for use

I'm not sure what you mean by IDE support. I don't think you mean
tooling because unlike spindle for T3, there are no special plugins for T4 or T5. Many of us, including myself, use Eclipse for T5. Is there something in particular you are asking about or are having trouble with?

Dear all:
I' ve learnt and used Tapestry 4 for more than 6 months
It's really a pleasure developing with Tapestry,and therefore, for the
last
two month I have tried to
advocate the use of Tapestry in my company.

Today, I did a short presentation to my co-workers, and they think the
separation between logic and UI hs made the code much cleaner.
However, they are scared by the somewhat complicated specifications,
and
having to input the component ID like @Form @RenderBlock by hand.

They are impressed by Tapestry, but they want IDE support to learn it

I know there is IDE support for T4, T5 in IDEA and T4 in Netbeans 5.5,
but in our company, we are using Eclipse and Netbeans 6

I know you may not have additional resources to be put in making a T4
support in Eclipse and Netbeans 6

but do you have any plan to start a project creating Eclipse&Netbeans
support for Tapestry 5 after the official release?

Thank you for all the hard work!

Best Regards,

John
