1. JSP
Since the introduction of JSP, back in 1999, it has made Java Servlet programming
far easier. The introduction of custom tag actions in JSP 1.1 made live a lot easier.
Jakarta Struts is an example of a solid action library among other.
I think the future of JSP lies within custom action tags.
However just because you write a custom tag does not mean you should
use it. I suspect architects to recoil from using EJB tags directly inside a JSP.
2. JSP
I have used JSP with Jakarta Struts / Xerces / Xalan / JDOM / Expresso
3. JSPTL
I have not discovered the JSPTL yet. I can see where they are going with
this expression language. For example I have seen few tags that can read
database result set in the books, and one which I have written.
4. JSF
Heard of, I dont know much about it(yet)
5. In the core JSP
there are few niggles could be ironed out. But the basics are pretty much worked out.
So I dont expect a lot changes to JSP standard action. Although you could add
standard index property <jsp:getIndexProperty index="0" ... />. I expect changes
to be in behaviour of custom tags though.

Subject: The Future of JSP
Hello,
I'm doing some research for publication regarding what the future has in
store for JSP. If you can spare a few moments, I'd appreciate your opinion:
1 - Where is JSP going? As JSP matures, more and more technologies are
starting to pop up that depend on it. Do you think the future will
thrive from these technologies, or does JSP still need to mature in
functionality and find its place in the server-side scheme of things?
2 - How do you currently use JSP, and what are the most common, if any,
other technologies you combine it with?
3 - What do you think about the JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library
(JSTL), JSR 52. Have you even heard of the JSTL? If so to what extent,
and what do you like and/or dislike about it?
4 - What do you think about JavaServer Faces (JSF), JSR 127? Have you
even heard of the JSF? If so to what extent, and what do you like and/or
dislike about it?
5 - What do you think will have the most significant impact on the
future of JSP (outside of JSP 1.3). Please as thoughtful and creative as
you like, some things to consider might be, J2EE, J2EE vs .Net,
container/server vendors, tag libraries, frameworks and design patterns,
new standards, and open-source projects.
That is it! Anything you send directly to me, [EMAIL PROTECTED],
ensures personal information is kept confidential. Please don't reply
straight to the listserv unless you'd like to share your thoughts with
everyone.
Many thanks for your time,
Jayson Falkner
