DO NOT REPLY [Bug 53031] New: Jasper Ant task should support Fork option

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53031

             Bug #: 53031
           Summary: Jasper Ant task should support Fork option
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.35
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: nicholas@nicholaswilliams.net
    Classification: Unclassified


As discussed in the "Ant Tasks Question" thread posted to the users list
(http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-users/201203.mbox/%3C00c82ddd5a8b1fb9cb75b0c98b39598d%40mail.gmail.com%3E),
JspC has a getFork() method that unconditionally returns false. The JspC Ant
task does not support forking like other Ant tasks, such as java, javac, etc.

It is the opinion of at least myself and Chris Schultz that supporting forking
should be expected of a nice player in the Ant ecosystem.

The Ant task for JSP compilation should be improved to support forking.

Relevant to 53011, 53012, 53031 and 53032: Per discussions with Chris Schultz
in the users list, we agree that it would probably make more sense to separate
the Ant task from the JspC class and place a new Ant task in the
o.a.catalina.ant package (possibly o.a.catalina.ant.jasper?). Research about
the state of the task needs to be completed. Further discussions about this
will take place in the developer's list, and then these issues will be updated
when a consensus is reached.
