IIRC, I opened this after we had a couple of regressions during refactoring of 
Jasper that worked within the container but did not work when run for 
pre-compilation. I don’t think anyone is looking at it and all contributions 
would be welcome.

Pointers … this would be a different type of test case as most of our existing 
integration tests spin up an embedded server which is the opposite of what is 
needed here. JspC is a JavaBean designed for use in an Ant task so executing it 
from a test should not be difficult. Most of the work would be in verifying the 
results. Ideas here might be to pre-process one or more webapps and inspect the 
generated Java or compile it, deploy it to an embedded server and execute the 
pre-compiled pages; the latter might be easier.

Cheers
Jeremy
