I've been playing around with the JspC intermittently for about a year, now, and I've noticed that the ant-i-fication of the JspC compiler seems to be a bit of an afterthought. For instance, the class that implements it isn't even called [something]Task.java. It's possible that this task in particular just doesn't work properly in a namespaced context. Can any ant experts comment on that? > Finally, there’s the matter of specifying a JVM.

Obviously, you can compile the .java files that the precompiler produces by separating the translation (.jsp -> .java) and compilation (.java -> .class) into two separate steps (where the latter is <javac>, which can be customized in the way you describe). So, do you mean that you want to choose the JVM that is used when actually performing the translation step? It looks like JspC itself has a getFork() method that unconditionally returns false. I'm not sure /why/, but this task wasn't expected to be able to run in a forked context. Without knowing the reasons for the above, I would say that in general running in a forked context shouldn't be forbidden - rather it should be expected of a nice player in the ant ecosystem. It seems like generating a command-line from all the options taken from the ant attributes and stuff shouldn't be in impossible feat. Can you file an enhancement in bugzilla for both of these issues? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk96DJgACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCTwgCfc00h+M/g0IEK+7oaxQ8pq2yc /C8AoKC9kMhWLlsCt/rsJFXzmpmf8SrW =qK/l -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
