Hi, My team is considering usage of EL, which we've never done before. Up till now we used good old scriptlets/expressions - e.g. if we have a "User" bean, containing an "Address" bean, containing a "city" string, then: - Currently we use <%= user.getAddress().getCity() %> - Migrating to EL, it will become ${user.address.city} However, we're worried about code-asist (autocomplete). Our beans are very complex, so my "user" bean would have about 15 attributes that are hard for programmers to remember. With the old <%= user.x %> syntax , most IDEs offer code-asist (you just type "user." and see its attribute list). Could anyone please tell of it's common practive among IDEs vendors, to support EL code-assist ? We currently use Eclipse/MyEclipse, but we could migrate to another IDE (Intellij, Netbeans...) if that's what it takes to get code-assist. Thanks!
