There are no installation instructions for this because it won't work -- you are
wasting your time.
The JSP 0.92 reference release came with its own servlet runner, and a very early
version of the servlet API that became the 2.1 specification. However, you have run
into one of the incompatibilities. What was defined as
javax.servlet.ResourceDispatcher in the classes included with JSP 0.92 became
javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher in the 2.1 API. Neither class exists in the 2.0
servlet API, which is what I thought JWS was still using.
If you want JSP capabilities according to the 0.92 specification, your choices are
pretty limited:
* Use the servlet runner that came with the reference implementation (that's
what I am currently doing my JSP experiments with)
* Use JRun 2.3, which advertises compatibility with JSP 0.92
* Use one of the free implementations that advertises 0.92 compatibility.
There is a lot more support for the JSP 0.91 specification, but there's lots of
changes and you might not want to do that.
