Hi, I've found something curious and was wondering if anyone had an explanation or comment.
I'm using Tomcat v4.1.12 but this also happens on TC v4.1.16 beta. Here's the situation: I have several Taglib JARs that I would like to make available to *all* web applications (i.e., all "contexts"). In other words, I do *not* want to have separate copies of each and every JAR in each web app's "/WEB-INF/lib" directory. I'd rather just put the JARs in Tomcat's "common/lib" directory. What I'm finding is that if I pre-compile my JSPs, I *can* have only one set of JARs in "common/lib", just as I want. On the other hand, if my JSPs are compiled on request (i.e., they are not pre-compiled), then the JARs *must* be in the "/WEB-INF/lib" directory for the particular web app. Is this correct behavior? I wonder if it's a limitation of the JSP compiler and if so, should it be fixed? Any comments??
