Craig says all the critical bugs are fixed, and it seems maybe they are.
However, there is still a problem (see bug #215) in TagLibraryInfoImpl which makes it
so that tag libraries cannot be packaged in .jar files. (3.2b7 (and 3.1) at least not
on Windows, have not tested on *nix.)
I marked this bug "serious" when I entered it because you can 'work around it' if you
un-jar the tag library into WEB-INF/classes and rename the taglib.tld file, then refer
to the .tld file from your JSP's.
But if 3.2 is supposed to represent the JSP 1.1 spec, then it clearly states that
packaging a tag library in a jar inside WEB-INF/lib is supposed to be a possibility.
Maybe this is "critical"?
On a separate topic, we're having some classloader problems where classes supposedly
available in .jars in WEB-INF/lib come up as "NoClassDefFound" as supporting classes
for some servlets and JSP pages. Moving these jars to jakarta-tomcat/lib solves the
problem. I haven't had time to track down exactly where the problem is, but it seems
wrong that the web-app classloader that loads the servlets & JSP's seems to be
ignoring the lib jars, or acting as if the classes in those jars came from a different
loader.
I probably should get better details before bringing this to the list, but I saw
Rickard Öberg's mention of a getResource() problem...
My $.02,
