pierred 00/12/14 14:28:28 Modified: src/share/org/apache/jasper/compiler Tag: tomcat_32 TagBeginGenerator.java Log: When the Jasper code gets the setter method for tag properties, it doesn't check to see whether the m variable is null until after attempting to use its getParameterTypes() method, which throws an uninformative NullPointerException. I simply moved the null check immediately after the variable m is set.
