7.4.1 Declarations
In the XML document corresponding to JSP pages,
declarations are represented using the syntax:
<jsp:declaration> declaration goes here </jsp:declaration>
For example, the second example from Section 2.10.1:
<%! public String f(int i) { if (i<3) return("..."); ... } %>
is translated using a CDATA statement to avoid having
to quote the "<" inside the jsp:declaration.
<jsp:declaration> <![CDATA[ public String f(int i) { if (i<3)
return("..."); } ]]> </jsp:declaration>
DTD Fragment <!ELEMENT jsp:declaration (#PCDATA) >
===============
By the way, the jsp directive is like this : <%@ .... %>
but you are right, <%! ... %> is the jsp declaration tag.
My problem is using these jsp tag inside an XML document
will cause major headache because it makes the XML not
well-formed. Though it can be solved by using DTD parameter
entitis and some other tricks but the most elegant solution
is the <jsp:declaration> tag, in the spec.
