If you include just the taglib (the JSR-223 to be created), then its usage would be restricted to Java 6 and up, such that current Java 1.4 and 1.5 installations in the field could not take advantage of it. To cover Java 1.4 and 1.5 BSF 3.0 got created, which implements the javax.script specifications. If BSF 3.0 is included then the scripting support will be available from Java 1.4 on. Starting with Java 6 the Java 6 javax.script would prevail due to using its own package by placement of the classes. ---rony --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
