Thanks Tim but it doesn't appear to be entirely resolved... Long story short: - Tried to precompile using the jbossweb-tomcat55.sar from jboss-4.0.3 - Same problem (I think its Tomcat-5.5.12) - Upgraded jars to Tomcat-5.5.13 - Got an error during compilation of actual tag file (instead of the client JSP): C:\dev\J2EE\libraryserver\build.xml:819: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /WEB-INF/tags/jspTags/displayValue.tag(27,88) Unable to load tag handler class "org.apache.taglibs.standard.tag.rt.core.SetTag" for tag "c:set"
- Discovered a workaround and have reverted back to native jbossweb-tomcat50.sar Here is the workaround: - Need to 'snip' the compile time tracing of recursion by the use of <jsp:include> - Create a JSP file that simply calls the tag using parameters supplied in request attribs - 'include' this JSP instead of performing a recursive call in the tag file - BEWARE CAVEAT: relative paths don't work inside a tagfile Example JSP: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] errorPage="/error.jsp" %><%@ taglib tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags/jspTags" prefix="slk" %><slk:displayValue value="${requestScope.recurseParamMap.value}" property="${requestScope.recurseParamMap.property}" defaultValue="${requestScope.recurseParamMap.defaultValue}"/> Example Tagfile snippet: <%java.util.Map recurseParamMap = new java.util.HashMap(); recurseParamMap.put("value", SOME_OBJECT); request.setAttribute("recurseParamMap", recurseParamMap); %><jsp:include page="/WEB-INF/tags/jspTags/recursion/displayValue.jsp"/> Cheers, Pete On 12/1/05, Tim Funk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > IIRC - this is fixed in 5.5.
