Thank for the reply joe...
But the Tomcat I am using is 4.1 only.....I have checked the documentation
and found out that both Tomcat4.1 and Weblogic8.1 is conformant to J2EE1.3
( Servlet 2.3 / JSP 1.2 ) ....so the problem is not with the jsp specs....
hm. I was going off of this page of release notes for Tomcat 4.1: http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.0/tomcat/ReleaseNotes.html
"Maximum size of a JSP page - The JSP page compiler can generate a Java class that exceeds the 64kb size limit on a single Java method that is imposed by the JVM. A common way for this to occur is to include large numbers (> 75) of custom tags in a single page. To work around this problem, divide your large page into smaller pages, and use the <jsp:include> standard action to combine them."
Maybe that was only for 4.1.2 and was fixed in later releases.
further, i feel that the problem is with the mechanism with which the container translates the JSP to servlet when the JSP is having tags....
Ultimately, this is true.
Now, my question is whether we can configure Weblogic in some way to do the translation as Tomcat does? ( I need to use Weblogic, thats a project requirement )
I think this is possible in theory, but unfortunately, I can't give you instructions. Tomcat uses a subsystem called "Jasper" for JSP handling. You could use Ant and Jasper to precompile your JSPs. Perhaps you can figure out a way to reconfigure the application server to use a different JSP compiler too.
