As far as I can tell, the first example shouldn't be valid. It should create
a syntax error: "illegal modifier on local variable" or something like that.
The second example is valid on JSP 0.91 and Websphere 2.0x for sure but I
don't know how "standard" it is. It puts the variable myInt as a class
static variable on the servlet generated from the .JSP file. It is
equivalent to the following:
public class _int_test__jsp extends HttpServlet
{
private static final int myInt = 0;
public void
_jspService(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException
{... etc
}

Hi all,
what is the difference in declaring variables using in JSP verion .91???
I use this and it works find:
<%private static final int myInt = 0; %> and
But I have seen some code that uses this:
<SCRIPT runat="server">
private static final int myInt = 0;
</SCRIPT>
Cheers
Marc
