Hi all,
There was an option to enable tag pooling in tomcat 3.3. Is the same
functionality still available in tomcat4.0.4 or 4.1.7 beta. I downloaded
both and was not able to find any provision in the corresponding
server.xml files. Can someone tell me whether tag pooling support is
provided or not. If yes how can i achieve it.
Another thing is that i have a jsp page with lot of custom tags.
When i access this particular page while running tomcat4.0.4, the page
is getting served properly. But if the same page is run using
tomcat4.1.7 beta i get a nullpointer exception in my tag at the
following line given in bold letters.
public int doEndTag() throws JspTagException
{
try
{
bodyContent.writeOut(bodyContent.getEnclosingWriter());
}
catch(IOException e)
{
throw new JspTagException(e.getMessage());
}
return Tag.EVAL_PAGE;
}
In the page i may use the tag as
<My:Tag/>
or as
<My:Tag>
-------
</My:Tag>
My tag extends BodyTagSupport. Here i dont know the reason for
bodyContent being null. Is there any change between 4.0.4 and 4.1.7
versions of tomcat in the handling of tags.
In my page i have the following set of tags
<tag>
<tag 1>
<tag 2/>
<tag 2/>
<tag 2/>
</tag1>
</tag>
Here the tag1 is an iteration tag. There are conditions present such
that only one of the tag2 will be executed during every execution.The
out put will be a table with 5 columns. In tomcat4.1.7 beta alone the
page is getting displayed with nearly 15 columns with all the columns
duplicated 3 to 4 times. It seems that the tags are getting ececuted
everytime. Have i missed out something in my tomcat configuration. It
would be of great help if someone can tell me where i went wrong.
Thanks in Advance
