taglibs as another taglibs' attribute value
Good day,
I'm new to jsp taglibs, and wondering if taglibs
implementation in the future will allow taglibs as
another taglibs attribute value.
For example:
<xtags:style xml="<mycustomtaglib ... >"
xsl="<mycustomtaglib ... >">
I am trying to avoid scriptlet whenever possible.
And when we can't have taglibs as another taglibs'
attribute values, it is really limiting the custom
taglibs capability.
TIA.

It's part of the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL), which is an upcoming
standard from the Java Community Process. The JSTL reference
implementation is available as the "Standard Taglib" from Jakarta Taglibs.

Which taglib does that belong?
I checked jakarta.apache.org/taglibs
and I can't find any c taglib.
Thanks again, this really saves my day :).

This pattern probably will never be allowed as such, but you can use
JSTL's <c:set> tag to capture the output of one tag and feed it to
another. You'll probably find this easier to read anyway, in the end:
<c:set var="myOutput">
<my:customTag ... />
</c:set>
<x:transform xml="${myOutput}" .../>
This keeps with XML's syntax, even though it's a bit more verbose.
