Torsten,

You may want to read the section about the tag handler lifecycle in an
article I wrote for ONJava.com:

  <http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2001/11/07/jsp12.html>

It explains how the methods are called and how to deal with attribute
values.

But if i looking into the generated jsp/servlet sources, i see the following:

if (_jspx_th_tools_simpleCell_0.doEndTag() == javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.Tag.SKIP_PAGE)
return;


-------- example

If i now reset my tag to a initial state in doStartTag() i haven't any properties set........

Who call the release method in reaction of the GC, finalize can't it.

According to the JSP 1.2 Spec, the release method is not invoked between
tag usages, but is invoked before GC of the tag handler.  Therefore
it should not be used to reset the tag handler to its initial state;
you should do that in doStartTag.  See p164 and p166.

Subject: TagHandlerPool doesn't release Tags on reuse
To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>


I have some jsp sites which taglibs. With pooling enabled, some problems
occures.

Samples:

Customer Registration: all fields have the same values???
Sessions Values are used together

After reading the jsp spezifikation and source of the
jasper/runtime/TagHandlerPool, i see that the pool doesn't call release
in his reuse method?

After adding a general release in the reuse methode, which perhaps breaks
the lifecycle of the IterationTag ( see jsp-spec, page 168 ) it's
working.

/**
* Adds the given tag handler to this tag handler pool, unless this
tag * handler pool has already reached its capacity, in which case the
tag * handler's release() method is called.
*
* @param handler Tag handler to add to this tag handler pool
*/
public synchronized void reuse(Tag handler) {

// Releasing Tags, see jsp spec 1.2-fcs, page 172
handler.release();

if (current < (handlers.length - 1))
handlers[++current] = handler;
}
