Hm, interesting point. Are you ready to precompile your application for each and

I believe the

Yes in general but it depends on application server version used. In Tomcat 4.x
series the directory structure is not reflected in generated .java files - they
all placed in org.apache.jsp package. Newer Tomcat (5.x) reflect directory
structure in package names, e.g. org.apache.jsp.WEB_002dINF.jsp.survey_002dgroup
package is used for file in WEB-INF/jsp/survey-group directory.

Re: JSP Compiling - painted in a corner?
Hello Illya, Thank you VERY much for your reply. The fact that Tomcat 5.x includes the directory structure in package statements and 4.x does not makes everything I've been doing much clearer. I need to go back and start from the beginning using Tomcat 5.x and Ant and see if I can get it working. If I can I'll have to do some convincing to ship the latest version instead of the 4.x version we were planning on. I think we'll have to do this since we have duplicate file names in subdirectories that are auto-generated so we have no control over their naming. Hm, interesting point. Are you ready to precompile your application for each and every version of each and every container? We are prepared to recompile our app for each server we'll run on, though initially we will only support Tomcat version x (whichever we end up going with when it's all said and done). We're shipping it as a complete package (Tomcat install with our war files included) and plan on crossing the I want to run on my existing Tomcat bridge when we come to it. Our customers generally aren't running a web server of any kind anyways so this shouldn't be much of an issue. Thanks again for pointing out the Tomcat version 4 vs. 5 precompile difference. It really has cleared things up for me. Jason __ Do you Yahoo!? Friends. Fun. Try the all-new Yahoo!

Re: JSP Compiling - painted in a corner?
Hello QM, Thank you very much for replying. Unfortunately the web.xml excerpt was a copy/paste. The full file is VERY large (4000 lines) so I won't post it here but I'll give you a larger sample. I did notice late yesterday that there are duplicate file names among the subdirectories so I definitely need to have the subdirectories included in the package statement. In order to do this I think I need to use the Ant build instead of calling jspc (or rather jspc.sh) directly, correct? I'll have to copy all the files off of the server and onto my PC to do this but I'm not to worried about that at this point. If I use the Ant method as described in the docs will it add the subdirectories to the package statement and create the web.xml fragment correctly by default or do I need to do something special to enable this? Here's a larger sample of what the non-Ant jspc.sh compile-attempt produced for the web.xml fragment (I did not use the -package option, obviously): !-- Automatically created by Tomcat JspC.

What my stuff does is the same as jasper does when it compiles on the fly. Except that my build does it al in one swoop. So what I did was to compile two features into one, 1. precompile 2. on the fly compile ie, all the jsp pages are precompiled, but if you change one, the jasper engine will compile it again.

Okay, I've copied my files to my PC and attempted to run the Ant build using the build.xml given on the Tomcat 5.0 site. It runs for about 2 seconds and spits out this error: C:\apache-ant-1.6.1\bin\build.xml:21: java.lang.VerifyError: (class: org/apache/ xerces/jaxp/DocumentBuilderImpl, method: parse signature: (Lorg/xml/sax/InputSou rce;)Lorg/w3c/dom/Document;) Incompatible object argument for function call I did some searching on google and found out that there is some combination of jdk + xerces + Ant that causes this to go bad but the only solution I found was for a JUnit problem and it didn't seem to translate. I also searched the archives and found similar issues but with older versions of the respective products. Most fixes were of the upgrade to version x kind (which I'm already at). This is what I'm running with: Ant:1.6.1 JDK:1.4.2_03 Tomcat: 4.1.18 (5.0.19 gave the saem result, see below) I noticed in the Ant lib directory I have two jar files: xercesImpl.jar and xml-apis.jar and in the Tomcat common/endorsed directory I have xercesImpl.jar and xmlParserAPIs.jar The two xercesImpl.jar's are different sizes. Which of these (if either) is Ant complaining about? So far I've: 1) removed both jars from the common/endorsed dir but got the same result so I put them back. 2) Copied the jars from the common/endorsed directory to common/lib. Didn't work. 3) Replaced the jar in the Ant lib directory with those from the Tomcat common/endorsed dir. Didn't work. 4) Attempted to do the same thing in a Tomcat 5.0.19 install directory and got the same result. Any ideas or pointers to information? Jason __ Do you Yahoo!? Friends. Fun.
