I can look into this. I have committed a fix for a classloading problem in Javac compilation of tag files, there may be another in loading the tag instances. > From a design standpoint, the tag file feature is IMO extremely evil, > as it mixes the code generation phase with the compilation (and adds > nasty tricks).

Automatic compilation of tag files is required by the spec, and is one of the features that's contributes to easy-of-use of tag files. The implementation can certainly be cleaned up some, and I'll look into that too. If you are talking about the spec, you can certainly voice your opinion to the jsr152 EG, but it may too late already. > That being said, I think we should proceed with the Tomcat 5.0.1 Alpha > release. > > Remy > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
