Hi Tim, Sorry, I'm sure I'm being a bit dense but I seem to be missing something important here.
Are the jspf files included (embedded) into the class file when Jasper compiles the jsp files to java? Essentially, the compiled class file will include the original jsp and also the fragment? Thanks for your help! Richard. -----Original Message----- From: Tim Funk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 September 2005 17:01 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Pre-compiled JSPs? There is no need to turn jspf into classes. The jspf are included by real jsp files. Those jsp files are turned into the class files. -Tim Richard Burman wrote: > Tim, > > Is there no way of turning the fragment (jspf) file into .class files or > do they need to remain as JSPs? > > Cheers, > Richard. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Tim Funk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 06 September 2005 16:14 > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Re: Pre-compiled JSPs? > > From the jasper task all the [valid] jsp's are turned into java files > and > compiled into class files.
