There were actually several stops due to the internet disconnection, and I failed because of javamail's absence, which build.xml didn't check out. I put javamail configuration to build.properties like this: # ----- Java Mail, version 1.2 or later ----- mail.home=${base.path}/javamail-1.3 mail.lib=${mail.home} mail.jar=${mail.lib}/mailapi.jar With the above addition, I also copied a javamail jar to javamail-1.3 directory. After this treatment, I succeeded in building Tomcat 5.
As of its running, the document (running.txt) says it requires JDK 1.2 or later. I tested webapps/ROOT/index.jsp with the following modification: (the number in left-side is line number for convenience of presentation.) 0 : <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en" http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd"> 1 : <% 2 : out.printlx("aa"); 3 : %> ... The invocation of this page resulted in the below: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP An error occurred at line: 1 in the jsp file: /index.jsp --- ... \build\work\Standalone\localhost\_\index_jsp.java:51: cannot resolve symbol symbol : method printlx (java.lang.String) location: class javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter out.printlx("aa"); ^ 1 error The exact line causing an error in JSP is 2, and it is not compliant with JSP 2.0's debugging support. Moreover, 0 : <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en" http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd"> 1 : <% 2 : out.println("aa"); 3 : out.printlx("aa"); 4 : %> ... also displayed the same result in terms of JSP line: An error occurred at line: 1 in the jsp file: /index.jsp ... \build\work\Standalone\localhost\_\index_jsp.java:52: cannot resolve symbol symbol : method printlx (java.lang.String) location: class javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter out.printlx("aa"); ^ 1 error In this case, the error line of the jsp file is 3. I guess Tomcat 5(Jasper 2) may not implement debugging support specified in JSP 2.0 spec. I'd like to know whether it is possible to do so without JDK 1.4(Merlin's JPDA-level support) and how the discussion on this issue with JSR-152 EG is going. Thanks for your great work again.
