          library.
          Parsing of JSP File '/jsp/foo.jsp' failed:

  • Simultaneous Client and Server Form Validation using Custom Tag Library

    I am developing a custom tag library for validator tags
    which are capable of doing client side validation (Javascript)
    and server side (Java). My problem is with the development
    of a regular expression based validator. Because of differences
    in the way Javascript and Java handle regular expressions
    i can not use the same regular expression for both types of
    validation. Is there any way to convert a valid regular
    expression from the java.util.regex format into the Javascript
    format or vice versa? My major problems are with the (or, ||)
    statements and the user of backslashes.

    If you are speaking of RE syntax flavours, they are basically the same(namely perl5 flavour). Any expression that works in JS should work in j.u.regex too.
    Though, their usage is quite different.
    So, there is no need for convertion of expressions.
    But porting the code may be not so trivial.

  • Problem using custom tag library in portlet's jsp

    Hi,
    I created a custom portlet (a JSR 168 portlet) and I'm using a tag library that I previously developed. Normally it works fine, but sometimes I get a ClassCastException. Once I redeploy the portlet everything works again. This is Oracle Portal 10.1.4.

  • Error Using Custom Tag

    I am trying to use a custom tag but receive an error when I use it on a jsp page.
    I have a tag handler class file, tag library descriptor file, specified the path to the .tld in the web.xml file.
    The error implies that it cannot find the SimpleTag.class file, though I put it in the \webapps\examples\WEB-INF\classes\ directory.
    Here is the error. Does anyone know what else it could be?
    org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
    Generated servlet error:
    C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1\work\localhost\examples\jsp\jspVisual\ch10\using_0005ftag$jsp.java:63: Class org.apache.SimpleTag not found.
    SimpleTag_jspx_th_myFirstTag_SimpleTag_0 = new SimpleTag();

    I could not see any obvious mistakes. But what you could try, in order to isolate the problem, is to bypass the web.xml. In other words access the TLD directly by doing this in your JSP
    <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/jsp/tag_library_descriptor.tld" prefix="myFirstTag" %>
    if that does work then move the your TLD out of the jsp folder and into WEB-INF , then try
    <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tag_library_descriptor.tld" prefix="myFirstTag" %>
    Maybe someone else has better idea.

    Let me explain the problem again
    I am using was(websphere) 3.5.2. Everything has been installed properly. I am using jdeveloper 3.2 for building the jsp application using custom tag library.
    Application works fine in JDeveloper 3.2.
    Application works fine even when deployed on JRun 3.0. ( we are evaluating various web servers).
    How when deployed on WAS and I run the jsp file in browser, its gives dr. watson on java.exe. I am using websphere 3.5.2 application server.
    WAS has typical settings as against JRun and Tomcat and may be I have not set the necessary paths.

    I have tried another much simple Custome Tag Library example that only contain a simple tag that do output to page, but still getting the same error.

    I had the same issue with WAS 6.1.0.2. I do not have a solution, but a workaround. I hope the workaround I have works for you too.
    In my case, I have the TLD files deployed in a jar. So, the JSP 2.0 container is supposed to read those TLD files from the jar file. Since that was not happening, I extracted the TLD file from the jar file and placed it under my web project's WEB-INF folder.
    I restarted my server and after that it worked.
    Look at the IBM site to see if they have come up with a patch for WAS 6.0.
    Hope this helps.

  • Connection Pooling and JSP Custom Tag Library - is code (inside) the best way/correc?

    This problem doexn't happen consistently. This occurs once in a while.

  • How to use a tag library in multiple web applications?

    Morning all,
    Environment: Tomcat 5 on Apache2 using Mod_JK connector on Windows XP
    I have developed a custom tag library and tested it out and its working great.
    Now, How do I use in my other web applications? Do I need to copy the JAR file to webapps\app1\WEB-INF\lib, webapps\app2\WEB-INF\lib etc directories?
    The problem with this approach is, if I happen to change the tag library code, I will have to make sure that I remember to copy the new JAR file to the above mentioned directories. Ofcourse I can write a simple ant script that would do it for me, but I was wondering if there was an efficient and yet simple way of achieving the same.
    Thanks in advance,
    Joe

    Thanks Vidyut! You've answered my question.
    I placed the jar file in the $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib directory. But where should I place the taglib TLD file? And how should I reference it in web.xml?
    Currently, my web.xml is as follows and it doesn't work.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
    <!DOCTYPE web-app
    PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
    "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
    <web-app>
    <taglib>
    <taglib-uri>http://abc.com</taglib-uri>
    <taglib-location>c:\Tomcat\shared\lib\mytags-taglib.tld</taglib-location>
    </taglib>
    </web-app>
    Thanks again!

  • Custom tag library called multiple times

    Hi ppl ,
    I have a custom tag library which i use to populate some menu components. When i do call my custom tag library though , it is called multiple times, use case is as follows.
    I have menu tabs and menu bars which thanks to Mr.Brenden is working splendidly as so:-
    <af:menuTabs>
    <af:forEach var="menuTab" items="#{bindings.menu.vwUserMenuTabRenderer.rangeSet}">
    <af:commandMenuItem text="#{menuTab.MenuLabel}"
    shortDesc="#{menuTab.MenuHint}"
    rendered="true"
    immediate="true"
    selected="#{sessionScope.selectedMenuId == menuTab.MenuId }"
    onclick="fnSetSelectedValue('#{menuTab.MenuId}')" >
    </af:commandMenuItem>
    </af:forEach>
    </af:menuTabs>
    <af:menuBar>
    <af:forEach var="menuBar" items="#{bindings.menu.vwUserMenuBarRenderer.rangeSet}">
    <af:commandMenuItem onclick="return clickreturnvalue()"
    onmouseover="dropdownmenu(this, event,#{menuBar.MenuId}, '150px')"
    onmouseout="delayhidemenu()"
    text="#{menuBar.MenuLabel}"
    action="#{menuBar.MenuUri}"
    rendered="#{menuBar.ParentId == sessionScope.selectedMenuId}"
    immediate="true" />
    </af:forEach>
    </af:menuBar>
    </afc:cache>
    now all of this code is within a subview , and just directly below the subview tag , i have the call to my custom tag library:-
    <myCustomTagLib:menuCascade />
    only issue now is that assuming i have in all 7 menu bar components, the doStartTag is called 7 times. the relevant code within my custom tag class is as follows :-
    public int doStartTag() throws JspException {
    return (EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE);
    public int doEndTag() throws JspException {
    try {
    declareVariables();
    return EVAL_PAGE;
    }catch (Exception ioe) {
    throw new JspException(ioe.getMessage());
    and within my declareVariables method i do an out of the jscript ( out.print(jscript.toString()); ) which is a simple string generated based on certain conditions...
    now it seems to be working fine on the front end , but when i view the source of the page, i notice that the declaration is called multiple times, and this happens because the doStartTag method is called multiple times, i haven't even nested the call to the custom tag within the menu components , any clue as to whats going wrong ?
    Cheers
    K

    Hi,
    if you add the following print statement
    System.out.println("rendering "+FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getViewId());
    Then the output in my case is
    07/04/24 08:14:04 rendering /BrowsePage.jsp
    07/04/24 08:14:05 rendering /otn_logo_small.gif
    The image comes from the file system, which means it is rendered by the JSF lifecycle. If you reference the image with a URL then the lifecycle doesn't render the image but only refrences it.
    To avoid your prepare render code to be executed multiple times, just check for jsp and jspx file extensions, which will guarantee that your code only executes for JSF pages, not for loaded files.
    The reason why this happens is because the JSF filter is set to /faces , which means all files that are loaded through that path

  • Can i make own formatted textbox using custom tag

    Hai,

    Hai,
    Can i create own format textbox similar to vb
    activex control.for example i want make own
    formatted textbox for enter only numeric value if
    entry any alpha value it's show error.Is this
    possible using custom tag
    If you mean a custom text box in a web page without an applet (in other words an html component), then Java has nothing to do with it. And by mentioning activex (even only in a 'like' comparison), and custom tag, you are once again hinting that you want an html component. I think you need to place your request to a JavaScript Forum, which, once again, has absolutely nothing to do with Java.
    A "custom tag" in JSP is not an HTML Tag. It may look a little like an html or xml tag, but it is evaluated on the server side. The control you need must be executed on the client side, which, once again, tells me you need to post to a JavaScript forum.

  • Problem deploying and using custom Tags in jar files

    I am trying to create a custom tag library of Java classes, package them in a JAR file, and use them in another web application. Here is the JAR file structure, named mytags.jar:
    META-INF
    META-INF/manifest.mf
    META-INF/taglib.tld
    mytags/FooBar.class
    mytags/Another.class
    ...Here is the taglib.tld file:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
    <taglib xmlns="http://java.sun.com/ns/j2ee"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee web-jsptaglibrary_2_0.xsd"
    version="2.0">
       <tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>
       <short-name>foo</short-name>
       <uri>fooTags</uri>
       <info>My tags</info>
       <tag>
         <name>fooBar</name>
         <tag-class>mytags.FooBar</tag-class>
         <body-content>empty</body-content>
         <attribute>
           <name>name</name>
           <required>false</required>
           <rtexprvalue>true</rtexprvalue>
         </attribute>
      </tag>
    </taglib>The FooBar class has getName(String) and setName() methods.
    In the web application, I have copied mytags.jar into the WEB-INF/lib directory. I've verified that it lands in the corresponding directory for my appserver (I'm using Tomcat 6.0.10).
    Here's the header for my JSP:
    <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" %>
    <%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
    <%@ taglib uri="fooTags" prefix="foo" %>
    <foo:fooBar name="dummy" />
    ...When I access my page, the browser sits there and spins, not able to do anything. I know that some of the content is executed, but it is not able to get to the fooTags. I have tried replacing fooTags with WEB-INF/lib/mytags.jar, to no effect.
    According to the docs, I should not need to include anything in web.xml to reference the fooTags. The tag library classes are valid, since I used them as local tags prior to moving them into a Jar library.
    Any help would be appreciated

    Take the code of the jsp file :
    <%@ page language="java" %>
    <%@ taglib uri="WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
    <html>
       <head>
         <title> First Struts Application </title>
       </head>
         <body>
            <table width="500" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
            <tr>

            </tr>
            <tr bgcolor="#36566E">
              <td height="68" width="48%">
                <div align="left">
                  <img src="images/hht.gif" width="220" height="74">

  • Trying to create custom tag library

    I'm a novice trying to create a simple custom tag library application. As such I need a couple import statements like
    import javax.servlet.jsp.*;
    import javax.servlet.jsp.tagext;
    This statements will not compile. I'm using Java 2 1.4_03 and WSDP 1.3. My CLASSPATH currently holds
    c:\jwsdp\common\lib\servlet-api.jar
    and
    c:\j2sdk\lib\mysql-connector-java-3.0.11-stable-bin.jar.
    I've got JAVA_HOME set to c:\j2sdk and JWSDP_HOME set to c:\jwsdp.
    Thank you very much for any assistance you are able to render.

    Thanks for your reply. I'm using the TextPad editor, which uses CLASSPATH.
    I've figured out the answer. I needed to add
    c:\jwsdp\common\lib\jsp-api.jar
    to my CLASSPATH.
    Again, thanks.
