Hi,
this is what we found during some inital analasys of the Estore (JPS):
1. errorpage.jsp does not import java.io (but implicitly uses it).
2. The web.xml for the web-app has an ejb-ref by the name of ejb/inventory
which lists inventory as a session while it in fact is an entity.
3. Internal errors are not logged (swallowed by errorpage and not logged
from there either). Severe bug for paranoid admins (disables the containers
logging, ie alerting the admin by mail etc).
4. Internal errors sometimes lead to a simple "the user id is already taken"
without any hint regarding the real error.
5. JSP Tags are used to store state outside of their own scope - This is a
programmer error since tags are usually reused once they're out of scope
(after doEndTag()) so the state will get corrupted.
Cannot dig deeper at the moment I'm afraid as it'd involve rewriting too
much of the Estore itself (which is not a top priority right now, we hope
the JPS team fixes these issues by themselves).
