Include a JSP file located in a JAR

how is it possible to include a jsp file which is located in a jar? perhaps someone has already a solution for this hoping
what I already have found out is that jasper parser supports loading JSP files out of JARs, indeed. but when using a <%@import file="foo.jsp"%> directive, this special method is not called. is there some workaround? should I set some special property?
thx

Did you ever figure this one out?

Include directive to include a JSP file from a JAR file

I have an Eclipse project in which I have placed a JSP file in the package structure with the rest of my code. This is in fact only a code snippet page, not a full blown JSP file.
I have a second project that is a Dynamic Web Project in Eclipse that incorporates the first project as a JAR in the /WEB-INF/lib directory.
In this project I have a JSP file and I want to include the JSP file embedded in that JAR file.
How do I do that?
I'm thinking the only real solution is to rewrite the snippet portion as a custom tag.

The JSP fragment page in question is actually a HTML form page. It is a form to be used specifically by a particular servlet. That is why they are "bundled" together in the same project, in the same package structure.
I have multiple web applications that I want to include that form/servlet, so it gets added to these projects in the /WEB-INF/lib folder as a JAR library. But I don't want to recreate the form over and over again for each application. It would be nice if I could write a JSP page that wraps the fragment using an include directive to bring that fragment into the new page.
So to do that with any other fragment I would write:
<%@ include file="/WEB-INF/jsp/SOME_FORM.jsp" %>
which works great if my fragment page is in the /WEB-INF/jsp subfolder. But if I want to access the JSP fragment as it is bundled in a JAR file, this:
<%@ include file="/WEB-INF/lib/FORM.jar/SOME_FORM.jsp" %>
doesn't work so good. It's just all wrong.
I was wondering how I could just write one include statement to get what I need. There are work-arounds galore, but I thought if I could get this working it would be the simplest solution overall.

How to include a jsp file from other site

Hi all,
I met a problem in my recent work. I need to include another seperate jsp file into my current jsp file, but the file is located at the different site (different physical server). Is there a way to include?
Cheers

Thanks tolmank, but our weblogic server didn't support jstl, so when I try to using <c:import.. > it doesn't work. If I use <jsp:include page="..."/>, nothing display on the page.

How to include a jsp file in servlets and javabeans

Hi to all..I have a jsp file which contains some database connections and I would like to include in that file in my servlets and javabeans.What coding can i use?Can show me sample coding.

Hi to all..I have created a javabean storing the
database connections. How do i include and call that
bean in my servlet and javabeans?Can pls show me some
sample coding?I am new to servlets and beans.The same way you do with normal Java Classes. If you are new to Java, I suggest you go to http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html and look through the first couple of tutorials.
As a note, it is best to put all your objects into packages, especially if you use JDK 1.4 or higher.

Include a jsp file for editing without compiling

I am having trouble finding code to do this.
I want to be able to edit a jsp file through my browser. I am to get everthing working except, the including of the jsp file itself. I have tried all the different types of includes, but they all compile the file. I want to be able to edit the source.
Can anybody help me with this?
Thanks
Mossybreen

I'm not totally clear on what you're trying to do.
If you just want to be able to edit JSP source code and save it back to the file, you could probably create a page with a form that reads the file, dumps the text into a textarea, then writes it back to the file when you submit, although, personally, I wouldn't leave anything that dangerous on a public server in a million years. You'd be better off setting up WebDAV access or sFTP or something if you really need to edit your source code remotely. There's also a product from Macromedia called Contribute that allows you to do this, and there's another company that makes an applet that creates a WYSIWYG HTML editor in your browser. Unfortunately I can't remember the name, but it was pretty far from perfect anyway.

How to include a JSP page contained in a JAR file ?

Hello,
I have a Servlet in which I would like to include, in the Response, the content of a JSP page contained in an external JAR file included in my lib directory ?
Could someone help me please ?
Thanks in advance.

I don't think thats possible with the standard j2ee server.
There are probably ways around it, but it would involve a large component of custom coding.

How can I include a jsp file in other jsp from different applications?

          Hi,
          I'd like know if it´s possible to include jsp or servlet from different applications.


          Thanks Deepak but I think you don´t understand me.
          I would like the include works like a normal include. I have a jsp in my application
          and , when the client requests this jsp, in the jsp should be added the result
          of the other jsp ejecution that belong to other application in the same domain.
          Is this possible?
          Thank you very much.

JSP Tag -- Including a JSP fragment in a Java Tag file

Hi all,
I have a query regarding JSP Tag file authoring by extending the TagSupport class. I would like to know if it is possible to include a JSP file fragment inside a Java file somehow.
Specifically, I have created a simple template tag, which adds a header and footer template to the resulting HTML page.
<bc:template>
Hello World!
</bc:template>produces for example
<html><body>
Hello World!
</body></html>Now I have two JSP fragment files (head.jspf and foot.jspf), and I want to do do something like
public class HtmlTemplateTag extends TagSupport implements TryCatchFinally {
public int doStartTag() {
    // somehow include head.jspf
    return EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE;
public void doFinally() {
    // somehow include foot.jspf
}Which means, I want to execute had.jspf and foot.jspf from the Java class file. I am not sure if it is even possible. If anyone can help me with this, it would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
nilesh

Your intention is to put a header/footer on pages in your web application?
There is another way to do it - specify prelude/coda jsp fragments in web.xml
Something like the following:
<jsp-config>
<jsp-property-group>
    <url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
    <include-prelude>/WEB-INF/jspf/head.jspf</include-prelude>
    <include-coda>/WEB-INF/jspf/foot.jspf</include-coda>
</jsp-property-group>
<jsp-config>

Ergent problem with the jsp file access in tomcat. HELP...

I use tomcat as my server, I have one JSP file located in :
webapps\abc\war\WEB-INF\jsp\index.jsp
You see my project name is abc, I want to access the index.jsp file, I define another jsp file in the path: webapps\abc callled outside.jsp. I want to use outside.jsp to invoke the index.jsp.
Inside outside.jsp it is :
<html>
<head>
<title>index</title>
</head>
<body>
<%@ include file="war/WEB-INF/jsp/index.jsp" %/>
</body>
</html>
When I open the browser, and access, http://localhost:8080/abc/outside.jsp , the content of index.jsp was shown as expect. But, all the link pages of the index.jsp can not shown (PS: the link pages is located in the same path as index.jsp, they are all jsp files). I guess the problem may be that the <%@ include file="war/WEB-INF/jsp/index.jsp" %/> inside outside.jsp include the index.jsp as a static file. Is there any method to make all the link pages of index.jsp can be shown when call from outside.jsp???HELP

I don't know why your links can't be shown, but I can tell you that your suspect:
I guess the problem may be that the <%@ include file="war/WEB-INF/jsp/index.jsp" %/> inside outside.jsp include the index.jsp as a static file.is wrong, because included jsp is dynamic, not static.

Help running a simple jsp file,Tomcat 5.0.16

Hi,
This question may be addressed many many times,but do reply.
I have a Win xp operating system
Installed Tomcat 5.0.16 in it.
Next the directory structure
PS : The sampleapp directory is outside the tomcat installation directory.
E:/sampleapp
| |
ROOT WEB-INF
|
classes
|
<package1><structure> .class files (for servlet works fine!!!!)
in the WEB-INF,there is the web.xml,then sourcefiles<dir> and the lib directory which is empty.
Now the servlet files work fine.........
I have placed my MyJsp.jsp file in the above mentioned ROOT directory.
I have not done any thing with the <TOMCAT_HOME>/conf/server.xml file
and the web.xml which I have written.
When I give the following URI
http://localhost:8080/sampleapp/MyJsp.jsp,
I get the HTTP status 404- /MyJsp.jsp
description: The requested resource (/MyJsp.jsp) is not available.
Hoping that I have defined the problem specifically.Kindly show some light on this.
Thanks

Nevermind. I just found the answer. For the record, there are two ways in getting JSPs to work:
1. Precompiling the JSPs and modifying your webapp's web.xml file with the XML fragment generated in YourWebApp/web/WEB-INF/generated_web.xml;
2. Not precompiling the JSPs, but simply letting tomcat compile it on the fly on first access.
PRECOMPILATION METHOD
Go to http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/jasper-howto.html. Copy-and-paste the ant script under the section "Web Application Compilation" into a file called compile.xml. For me, I save it in ~/development/compile.xml. Then compile the JSPs using the command (all in a single line):
$ANT_HOME/ant -file <PATH_TO_COMPILE.XML> -Dtomcat.home=<$TOMCAT_HOME> -Dwebapp.path=<$WEBAPP_PATH>
In my case, I cd into the directory where my app resides:
cd ~/development/HelloWorld
and then I type:
ant -file ~/development/compile.xml -Dtomcat.home=/var/tomcat5 -Dwebapp.path=.
(Note the trailing dot since my current directory is my webapp's directory itself. Also, in my case, my shell's PATH contains the path to the ant executable, so I just type 'ant' directly.)
Open the file ~/development/HelloWorld/web/WEB-INF/generated_web.xml and follow the instructions in that auto-generated file, which is: "Place this fragment in the web.xml before all icon, display-name, description, distributable, and context-param elements."
The web.xml referred to above is YOUR web.xml. In my case, it is the one in ~/development/HelloWorld/web/WEB-INF/web.xml
When ready to deploy, type:
ant dist
as usual. Deploy the .war file in the dist directory as you normally would. In my case, I do:
rm -rf $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/hello* (removes my HelloWorld webapp directory and its war file)
cp ~/development/HelloWorld/dist/hello.war $CATALINA_HOME/webapps
and wait for tomcat to unravel the war file. I can then access the JSP page based on whatever the generated_web.xml had specified. In my case, it would be http://localhost:8080/hello/sample.jsp
NON-PRECOMPILATION METHOD
Copy tools.jar from the Java JDK into tomcat's common/lib. (I found this only in the error message in tomcat's log file!! Didn't find it anywhere else!!). Do this one time only, then restart tomcat:
cp $JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib
Restart tomcat.
Deploy your webapp as usual which will include your JSP files stored under your webapp's 'web' directory. No precompilation of JSPs is required. Then access your JSP pages such as http://localhost:8080/HelloWorld/my-jsp-page.jsp and tomcat will compile it on the fly on first access. The disadvantage is that there will be a slight delay on first access.
[Note: I am putting all this down for the record, because it took me MANY HOURS to figure all this out as the info on how to do this is not found clearly in one place!! Hope this helps others.]
My next step is to incorporate the contents of compile.xml as mentioned above, into my regular build.xml file.
