In several of the poms that invoke jspc-maven-plugin I see:
<!-- Required for JSPC compilation -->
<dependency>
<groupId>tomcat</groupId>
<artifactId>jasper-runtime</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
I have a vague recollection about needing this dependency for a
previous version of the jspc plugin. Or maybe that was something else
and I'm getting mixed up. Now we're using version 1.4.6 of the plugin
and if I remove the dependency then the build still seems to work
correctly (but I don't totally trust my build env right now :-) Does
anyone know for sure why its there and if it's still necessary?
Best wishes,
Paul
