The Eclipse Ganymede HTML editor is incredibly slow when editing attributes

I recently upgraded to Europa's Eclipse Ganymede, and now I find that when I edit JSP files, the IDE scans when editing HTML attributes (but not JSP attributes).

Has anyone experienced this or had any suggestions?

Also, if you can point me to the best place to ask questions related to Eclipse, tell me.

Thanks!

Visual editors in Eclipse are slow. I have no idea why this is so; other graphical environments achieve real-time mind effects in Java, so they should not be so slow.

I suggest you open an error report for Eclipse. That way, you can give them feedback and see what they think about it, and you can track any progress if they accept it.

Regarding Eclipse questions, go to the newsgroups . There are also mailing lists, but they are intended only for developers working in Eclipse (not for those who work with it). Thus, this is only an option if you decide to work on this error :)

For Eclipse Ganymede: you can use the following menu to disable the HTML validation together or parts of the project.

Right click on project | Project Properties | Check | Enable special project settings.

Then you can turn off HTML validation.

Or, from the project’s properties, click Open and select HTML Validation. Select Enable Special Project Settings and set the Ignore item to any of the ten checks.

You can also disable these settings for the entire workspace using the Windows settings (Eclipse) | Verification Settings.

The problem still persists, as it seems. I know the problem, but I don’t yet know how to confront it ...

You can see that if you try to edit an attribute at the end of a document, it is not as slow as editing an attribute at the beginning of a document.

Or you can see that if you try to edit attributes that already have a final quote (for example, first enter: attribute_name="" and only then enter the attribute value, this is also not slow.

The problem arises because when you enter an attribute without a quote with the end of the value ("), like this: attribute_name="... , the rest of the document becomes the value of this attribute and is processed by an eclipse for every keystroke you make.

I spent about half an hour on how to disable the processing of attribute values, but failed (maybe I did not look for it long enough).

Using the eclipse update site, I previously installed Eclipse Web Developer Tools. Something seems to be included in this, making the JSP editor extremely slow.

I did not install this and installed a web page editor which also includes a JSP editor and does not have the same slow problem.

Here they say that Eclipse Kepler will overcome this problem: Is Eclipse too slow switching tabs? . Unfortunately, the patch link for Eclipse Juno is now broken ... so I will wait for Kepler.

Delete directory with js file tones like jQuery etc. Eclipse gets lost with too much source code before compiling .
