*.jspf files: How to get file extension provisions to kick in?
« on: October 20, 2009, 06:55:02 PM »
How can I get file extension provisions ( syntax highlighting, code completeion, etc ) for files with the extension *.jspf.     I got them for *.jsp files, but not *.jspf.  I'm suing version 10.* VSE for windows.

Thanks.

I don't think adding a new language is needed.
There is already a language set up for jsp:  just add an association for jspf to the existing language that jsp is associated with.
But SE 10 is old enough that I don't know the exact steps for doing that in SE 10.

I tried   Tools | Options | File Extension Setup and the "Refer To" button to refer to "jsp" but it just points to HTML ( like jsp), but without the jsp provisions.

I tried in V10-0-C making jspf refer to jsp and it seems to be doing syntax highlighting ok but completion doesn't seem to work for either jsp or jspf.  In V14 slick won't let me make jspf refer to jsp but referring to html seems to work.
