Description Tim Funk 2010-11-08 07:12:01 UTC
Update JspC to allow new options to
1) Write web-fragment.xml as a valid web-fragment file.
2) Place all the precompiled jsp classes into a jar file
3) Put the web-fragment,xml (from step 1) into META-INF/web-fragment.xml of the jar file created in step 2

4) Use annotations (independent from #1-#3 in comment #0)
Comment 2 Christopher Schultz 2011-01-21 12:52:24 UTC
It looks like annotations don't make any sense, here. Brain fart on my part.

On the other hand, it looks like a simple change to a properties file plus a new build-jspc.xml build script should do the trick.

Working on a patch.

4) abandon the requirement for web.xml if a web-fragment.xml is present
At the moment (Tomcat 7), a dummy web.xml has to be defined in order to define the version (i.e. for expresions within the JSPs).
