creating a context for a database connect

[David Parker <dl...@facstaff.wisc.edu>]

Where is the achieve server for this list?
Could someone point me at the documentation on using server.xml and web.xml 
to create contexts for a database and telnet connections.
Sincerely,

The following changes to TagGeneratorBase.java fixes the issue (I also
attached the .java file).  I can understand if this still doesn't make
it into 3.2 if you have QA issues.

This does turn out to be a bug in Tomcat.  I'm not sure it can get
addressed
in a 3.2 timeframe, but will definitely be addressed in a subsequent
version.

Did I submit this question to the right place?

Jasper code generation problem (bug?)

["Patrick J. McNerthney" <pa...@mcnerthney.com>]

When I create a custom tag with a name that contains a dash, such as
"Foo-Bar", Jasper uses this name in the generation of the variable name
used to hold the instance of this tag.  Since the dash is not a valid
java variable character, this code does not compile under javac.  Other
JSP compilers, such as WebLogic do handle tag names with dashes fine.

The JavaServer Pages Specification, Version 1.1 states in section 5.3.5
that the name element's PCDATA is comprised of NMTOKEN (name token),
which according to the XML specification includes the dash.

Is this a problem with Jasper or does the JSP specification in fact
preclude the use of dashes in the name element PCDATA?
