In several of the poms that invoke jspc-maven-plugin I see:
<!-- Required for JSPC compilation --> <dependency> <groupId>tomcat</groupId> <artifactId>jasper-runtime</artifactId> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> I have a vague recollection about needing this dependency for a previous version of the jspc plugin. Or maybe that was something else and I'm getting mixed up. Now we're using version 1.4.6 of the plugin and if I remove the dependency then the build still seems to work correctly (but I don't totally trust my build env right now :-) Does anyone know for sure why its there and if it's still necessary? Best wishes, Paul
