In my GWT 2.8 based project Eclipse 2020-03 shows me lots of error message under Markers -> Language Servers I am sure that these are not errors. For some reason, Eclipse cannot interpret ui.xml files correctly. The application compiles and runs fine:
My eclipse wide settings for XML validation are as follows:
There are not project-specific settings for this
Here is an extract (not the complete source!!!) of one example of a something.ui.xml file. The project contains lots of those files:
<!DOCTYPE ui:UiBinder SYSTEM "http://dl.google.com/gwt/DTD/xhtml.ent">

<b:Alert type="DANGER" ui:field="participantWarning">
<b:Icon type="WARNING"/>
<g:HTML><ui:text from="{sMsgs.transferOwnershipNotParticipantWarning}" /></g:HTML>
</b:Alert>
</b:ModalBody>
<b:ModalFooter>
These are the error messages:
Mouseover on the error always shows:
although it is declared above: [...]
xmlns:b="urn:import:org.gwtbootstrap3.client.ui"
[...]
Import: The application compiles and runs fine. So I just want to suppress those error messages (show in error) as they are not really error messages. :-)
These resources might be helpful:
By "must be declared", it means declared in a Document Type Definition (DTD) or XML Schema, also known as "grammar".
The line you quoted:
It says there's a namespace "b", but this line has no other meaning. It doesn't, for instance, declare which elements (like
Alert) are valid in that namespace.If you are not worried about validating your XML, and only wish to turn off the error messages, I would suggest you change your options:
This will stop Eclipse trying to validate the XML against a grammar, but should still show errors for malformed XML (tags closed twice etc.). You can configure this option on a per-project basis, if you prefer.
The alternative would be to provide a DTD or Schema and reference it in the XML. You will probably have to write such a grammar yourself unless gwtbootstrap3 provides one (which I don't think it does).
To clear existing validation errors, you may have to manually delete them.
