Actually, the tag doesn't produce tags, although it does iterate over the tags in its body. What Wayne wants to do, as I understand it, is have a tag that can actually generate some JSP containing other tags (in this case Struts tags). Those tags would then be evaluated, and may in fact produ

Re: recursive tag

When a JSP page is compiled, the JSP code itself is turned into a servlet, but the custom tags remain external to that servlet. The class files for these must be a part of the web app for it to work. Regardless, you do raise a good point. If things worked the way I had supposed, then you would

Re: recursive tag

Martin, I do not believe that what you suggest would work. My understanding is that when a jsp is compiled, all the custom taglibs and the jsp are compiled into one huge servlet. So at runtime, the container knows nothing about custom tags or taglibs, just

Re: recursive tag

You should be able to do this by creating a custom tag that writes your initial output (the tags you suggested from your example) to the body, and then returns EVAL_BODY_TAG from doAfterBody() to cause the body to be reevaluated. Take a look at the JSP spec (e.g. the section on Actions with B

Re: recursive tag

This brings up a sub point I was wondering about. Does the Digester handle namespaces in it's matching? If so, how? I could see using the digester to catch the embedded struts tag and instantiate the appropriate TagLib classes if it supported namespaces. Craig T. "Sukachevin, Stoehr" wrote:

RE: recursive tag

You could have your tag simulate being the JSP container by instantiating an instance of org.apache.struts.taglib.html.TextTag and invoking it based upon what the javadocs say is the invocation sequence for Tags [http://www.javasoft.com/j2ee/j2sdkee/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/jsp/tagext/ Tag.html]
