Re: Servlet and JSP APIs in java repository
Hi, I would also like to know the relashionship between the Apache Geronimo specs version of the servlet API and JSP specifications. For instance, we currently get the Servlet 2.4 API with both Geronimo specs and Tomcat 5.5. Similar for JSP. Are they the same? Which one should be mavenized and used everywhere Servlet adn JSP are needed? Regards to all, Fernando Yoav Shapira wrote: Hi, There's a lot of confusion about the servlet and jsp apis, many projects reference the servlet 2.4 while in Tomcat 5.5 the version included says 2.4.public_draft, so I really don't know if there's available a 2.4 final somewhere. The version that ships with Tomcat 5.5 and all but the very first couple of Tomcat 5.0 releases is Servlet Specification v2.4 final. (And JSP Specification v2.0 final). When you say it says 2.4.public_draft, what precisely do you mean? Is that the name of a file somewhere, a directory, a CVS tag? So this is a request for help, if you could tell us what versions of servlet api exist since 2.3 and jsp apis, where to get them and the license (some Sun APIs can't be redistributed in the repository), then I'll fix the repository. There was Servlet Spec 2.3 and JSP Spec 1.2, which go with Tomcat 4. Then there were a few Servlet Spec 2.4 PFD (Proposed Final Draft) releases, but that's a long time ago. Everything for the past year and several months has been Servlet Spec 2.4 (final) and JSP Spec 2.0 (final). As far as CVS: while both these packages ship with Tomcat, they have their own CVS area. It's the jakarta-servletapi-5 CVS module, and under it you'll find directories for each spec. The binaries (they're actually jars, servlet-api.jar and jsp-api.jar, respectively) in there are for Servlet Spec 2.4 final and JSP Spec 2.0 final. I hope that clarifies things. If not, please let us know how else we can help. Yoav - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Fernando Nasser Red Hat Canada Ltd.

Re: TCKs and vote for 5.5.8
Hi, Thanks for your prompt response. Yoav Shapira wrote: Hola, 5.0.30 will stay beta, there will be no vote on it, no matter what the TCKs say, because of other bugs. (I don't remember the specifics right now, they were discussed on this list at the time shortly after the release). Sorry, I joined after that. Should have checked the archives. When a good new 5.0.x release comes out (for which there's no ETA), we'll request the TCKs be run. OK, so there is a possibility that this still happens. Good to know. Thanks again for the clarifications.
