We had a developer get bitten by this today, and I remember getting bitten with
it a while ago, so I thought I'd post a suggestion.

When you create a JSP that's too big that causes the generated method to go past
the 64K limit you get an error like this:

> -----------------------------------------------------------------
> javax.servlet.ServletException: (class:
org/apache/jsp/desktop_0005fresults_0005fdetail$jsp, method: _jspService
signature:
(Ljavax/servlet/http/HttpServletRequest;Ljavax/servlet/http/HttpServletResponse;)V)
Illegal target of jump or branch
> 
>         at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:481)
>         at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853)
>         at
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.invoke(ApplicationDispatcher.java:683)
>         at
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.doForward(ApplicationDispatcher.java:431)
>         at
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.forward(ApplicationDispatcher.java:355)
>         at
com.templar.it.fed.dm.AbstractDfmDisplayManager.forwardToPage(AbstractDfmDisplayManager.java:408)
>         at
com.templar.it.fed.dm.AbstractDfmDisplayManager.doGet(AbstractDfmDisplayManager.java:392)
>         at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:740)

My suggested enhancement is to check for that specific illegal jump error and if
it happens, append an error message like "Your JSP file may have generated a
method larger than 64K. Please visit this FAQ/use jsp:include/ etc etc"

Just a suggestion. thanks!
