I am running Tomcat 5.0.1.9 on OS X. I found an O'Reilly tutorial
online (http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2001/04/19/tomcat.html) which
I always find helpful. Following the tutorial, I got basic jsp/servlets
working.
The last part of the tutorial is creating custom tags, and when I
implement that part of the tutorial, I receive a
javax.servlet.ServletException:
javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.TagInfo.<init>(...) exception. Googling the
error didn't turn up any seemingly useful information, and the end of
the article also did not show anyone else having the same issue.
--code--
<%@ taglib uri="/onjava" prefix="onjava" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>OnJava Demo</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<table width="500" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<img src="/onjava/images/monitor2.gif"></td>
<td>
<!-- With this line uncommented and the next line commented (and the
first line of the file deleted), everything works great -->
<!-- <b>Welcome : <%= request.getAttribute("USER")%></b> -->
<b><onjava:hello /> : <%= request.getAttribute("USER") %></b>
<!-- but I get the error with the current setup -->
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
--code-
I feel like I'm missing something fairly obvious, but I've followed the
tutorial exactly (as best I can tell). If it would help to see more
code or anything please let me know and I'll post it. The web.xml has
<taglib> tags and the taglib.tld is in the lib directory. If there are
any resources you can point me to I'd be appreciative.
Thanks for you consideration,
matt
