Jasper getProperty violates spec.

           Summary: Jasper getProperty violates spec.
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.24
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The implementation of jsp:getProperty outputs "" rather than "null"
when the get method returns null. This is due to the JspRuntimeLibrary
toString(Object) implementation:

public static String toString(Object o) {
  return (o == null) ? "" : o.toString();
}

The equivalent implementation in jasper2 that is contained in the Tomcat 5 
source (which yields the expected output):

public static String toString(Object o) {
  return String.valueOf(o);
}

If it weren't for Tomcats status as being the reference implementation
one could argue bug vs. feature..
