Bug ID: 54475 Summary: SMAP broken in Java 8 for JSP compile Product: Tomcat 8 Version: trunk Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Jasper Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Reporter: nicho...@nicholaswilliams.net Classification: Unclassified In order to compile JSPs with Java 8, I made the following additions to the JSP servlet in conf\web.xml: <init-param> <param-name>compiler</param-name> <param-value>modern</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>compilerSourceVM</param-name> <param-value>1.8</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>compilerTargetVM</param-name> <param-value>1.8</param-value> </init-param> However, I get the following error: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.handleJspException(JspServletWrapper.java:549) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:378) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:390) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:334) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:728) ... Caused by java.io.IOException: unexpected tag: 18 at org.apache.jasper.compiler.SmapUtil$SDEInstaller.copyConstantPool(SmapUtil.java:434) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.SmapUtil$SDEInstaller.addSDE(SmapUtil.java:251) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.SmapUtil$SDEInstaller.install(SmapUtil.java:223) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.SmapUtil$SDEInstaller.install(SmapUtil.java:200) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.SmapUtil.installSmap(SmapUtil.java:163) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.AntCompiler.generateClass(AntCompiler.java:284) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.Compiler.compile(Compiler.java:378) ... If I also add the suppressSmap parameter to the JSP servlet in conf\web.xml, the error goes away, and the JSP compiles fine: <init-param> <param-name>suppressSmap</param-name> <param-value>true</param-value> </init-param> Something about the SMAP is not playing well with Java 8 language features like the lambda expression. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
