Hi,
afaik there are two reasons for this one is versioning (for recompiling and
loading) and the other as a char-mangling mechanism to make weired filenames
propper class names.
For a detailed discussion search the archives for topics like:
"jsp-filenames should be less than 20 characters"
Reagards,
Andreas

Subject: What's with the _0002f in the filenames? (Precompiling JSP's)
Ok, here's a naive question:
When Tomcat (3.2b8/Sun JDK 1.2.2_06) runs a JSP file for me,
say, somefile.jsp,
I notice it
a) precompiles to somefile.java in the work directory for that context
b) compiles it to _0002fsomefile_0002ejspsomefile_0.class
c) renames that to _0002fsomefile_0002ejspsomefile.class and
executes it
Why not somefile.class?
It'd make precompiling JSP's into classes a lot easier; I could run
jspc to precompile the *.java files, and then "javac *.java" to
precompile the class files.
