JSP additional plugins for support
Answered
Hello,
I use Intellij Ultimate on a project with JSP pages. Syntactic highlighting works fine but I have noticed several issues that I would like your lights on :) here is the list :
- there is no warning when I set variables that I never use afterwards
- EL language is not working with parameterized functions, e.g. $(requestAttribute.someFunction(someParameter))
- functions that take no arguments work, but the empty brackets are highlighted and when I hover over them, a pop-up read “method call is nonstandard extension”
- there is no autocompletion on methods from objects passed in the request (but I guess it's normal)
Maybe some additional plugins would fix these issues?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Could you please provide code example? Unused variables are highlighted on my machine.

Could you please provide code example demonstrating the issue?

Please provide code example for investigation.
