JspC creates blank files on failure

           Summary: JspC creates blank files on failure
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.24
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: cwestnea@indiana.edu


If there is a problem with the JSP file, JspC will leave behind a 0 byte java 
file. When using Ant to compile a webapp, the JspC task will not attempt to 
regenerate the failed java file if the source has not changed because of this 
0 byte file. This is a problem in general, but especially when the errors are 
in the tld file and do not require an edit of the Jsp file, since it is 
possible to think that a change in the tld fixed the problem, when in fact 
jspc skipped the file.
