Andrew Jaquith commented on JSPWIKI-620:
----------------------------------------
The primary benefit of the precompiled JSPs is that you can deploy the WAR
without unpacking. It is also important for web unit tests (which do not work
at the moment), because pre-compilation speeds them up immensely. 3.0's Ant
scripts were re-written to use precompiled JSPs for this purpose.
I seem to recall a previous discussion on the mailing list. I think the rough
conclusion was that we should always copy JSPs into the WAR regardless of the
pre-compilation setting -- it would also mean the .getResourceAsStream() calls
would succeed, even if the JSPs *were* precompiled.
I do not favor dropping this. However, it would probably be a good idea to
remove it from the 2.8 Ant script. Or we could simply mark this as a known
issue for 2.8.
