Hi to all, I don't know if they should be considered showstopper but while playing with 5.5.12 for some of our new applications, I see these problems :
When using Jasper2 in JSP precompilation step, it load needed taglibs jars defined in web.xml, but didn't release all of them after build (here is how it's invoked) <jasper2 validateXml="false" uriroot="${build.dir}/jspc/${wname}" webXmlFragment="${build.dir}/dst/${wname}/WEB-INF/jsp.xml" outputDir="${build.dir}/${wname}-src" javaEncoding="ISO-8859-1" trimSpaces="true" /> As such, when you're using ANT from eclipse and you specify ANT should use the same JRE as the workspace, you're puzzled and should restart eclipse ;-( Another serious problem in Jasper2 precompilation is when web.xml contains external entites living in the webapp. We fixed Jasper2 in 5.5.9 to fixe this behaviour at runtime, but it appears it's also needed in precompilation step. Here is a sample web.xml where you could see use of entities located in base.xml and jsp.xml (also located in WEB-INF). <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd" [ <!ENTITY base SYSTEM "base.xml"> <!ENTITY jsp SYSTEM "jsp.xml"> ]> <web-app> ... &base; &jsp; ... <taglib> <taglib-uri>http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/random-1.0</taglib-uri> <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/lib/taglibs-random.jar</taglib-location> </taglib> </web-app> Did these bugs are showstoppers or should they be postponed to 5.5.13 ?
