Hello Dennis,
i just found this line in the jsp spec 1.1:
5.2.1 Packaged Tag Libraries
JSP page authoring tools are required to accept a Tag Library
that is packaged as a JAR file.
When packaged sot he JAR file must have a tag library descriptor
file named META-INF/taglib.tld.
After all those years i have just learned something new. I always extracted
taglibs, added the taglib mappings to the web.xml and thats it. I do not
know why. Never asked myself.
And so i can ask myself from now on as well: why would i continue to want
that? And i can answer then: because i can.
But of course i will change this behaviour just from today on. :-)
Thank you a lot.
