Well, that's a nice entertaining start to my week ;) The standards (Servlet and JSP specifications) are backwards compatible. So things that implement them will be backwards compatible. However, features of the server not mandated by the specification (e.g. server configuration, non-standard features) are not guaranteed to be backwards-compatible. Moreover, tomcat 5 is not yet mature. You are helping us test it and find bugs, for which we are grateful ;) >Besides, struts' tags are very >popular (<html><bean> etc.). If 5.0 were somehow not compatible with these >tags, we would hear more complaints from this forum. We would, I agree, if more people assumed tomcat 5 was production-ready. Not many people make this assumption now. Many people are waiting for a tomcat 5 stable release, which hasn't happened (and won't until the specs are final). When the first stable release comes out, I expect to see a lot more tomcat 5 "bug reports" as there will be many more users/testers. It's natural for every product ;) Yoav Shapira This e-mail, including any attachments, is a confidential business communication, and may contain information that is confidential, proprietary and/or privileged.
