Every time doAfterBody is called it
gets a chance to interpret to body up to that point. When it is done processing
it can decide to re-evaluate the body (loop) or skip the body (end the loop).
It really has the dual purpose of interpreting the body and controlling the
looping of the body content. In tags 1.1 they have split this into two tags so
that if you only care about looping you don’t have to be a body tag. -Jeff Ward -----Original
Message----- Hi, I
have been trying to figure the meaning of the EVAL_BODY_TAG while reading the
spec of JSP. I understood that it means to run over the body supplied by the
tag. My question is, when the stream of content streams into the buffer (on the
way to the client)? Is it EVERY time the body is evaluated THAN something is
sent (piece by piece) to the buffer, or is it in one bundle when the
doAfterBody is called? Thanks
for your time, David. |
