Those are good suggestions, some things I hadn't thought of. I am using a
war:webapp postGoal to copy in some docs into my webapp before the WAR is
created.
What I discovered was that the first use of
<groupId>taglibs</groupId>
<artifactId>taglib-session</artifactId>
<version>1.0.1</version> etc.
when I wanted the jar in /WEB-INF/lib,
was overwritten in the Map (or Hash or whatever) that was built for lib.path
by the second use of that same name, when I specified that
<type>tld</type>
So unless I used two different names, I would always lose the first one when
the maven-war-plugin executed.
I found another way also: I took all the taglib jars I want to use and
unjarred them into a common temp directory, then went into that directory
and
jar cf taglibs-1.0.1 org
then moved that into my taglibs repository. Only had to have that one
dependency then .... overkill I know, but it works.
I'm trying to move an existing Tomcat/Struts application that works well
enough into a JBoss-Tomcat/Struts, still trying to lose that Tomcat-think
about how things are done. Some of those taglibs can help me watch/see
what's going on in the JSP environment, they're really just for debugging
right now.
Thanks,
K
