This is just a heads-up for other people that are waiting for this. With the new release you can include this in your web.xml (the starting tag is important):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation=" http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd " version="2.5" > <jsp-config> <jsp-property-group> <url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern> <el-ignored>false</el-ignored> <include-prelude>/WEB-INF/taglibs.jspf</include-prelude> <deferred-syntax-allowed-as-literal>true</deferred-syntax-allowed- as-literal> <trim-directive-whitespaces>true</trim-directive-whitespaces> </jsp-property-group> </jsp-config> Which means that: * You can remove from all your JSP pages <%...@page isELIgnored="false" %> * You can also remove (in this example) this inclusion of a file where you define all your JSP libraries: <%@ include file="/WEB-INF/taglibs.jspf" %> * You can use '#{}' freely in your JSP page without seeing the error "#{..} is not allowed in template text" (this is a new error introduced in this release) * As a nice extra, whitespaces at the beginning will be trimmed. As far as I can tell, this had never worked before 1.4.0. Thanks guys. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
