BodyTagSupport not behaving ?

[Oded Arbel <od...@m-wise.com>]

Hi list.

I'm writing a new tag which extends BodyTagSupport. I want to implement 
doAfterBody() in order to write some output instead of the tag 
(possibly after parsing what was already processed into the body - the 
tag definition has <body-content>JSP</body-content>).

Now in my JSPx file, when I call it, if there is no actuall content 
inside the tag (for example - just white soace) it is compiled by 
tomcat 5.0.30 into a call to doStartTag() (whose return value is 
discarded) and then a imediatly a call to doEndTag(), with out calls to 
init body do doAfterBody().

Is that how it should be ? how can I make it call doAfterBody() even if 
there is no actuall text in the body ?

also - even if there is something in the body of the tag, writing from 
doAfterBody() into bodyContents does not appear on the page as it 
rendered by tomcat - I failed to follow where is it discarded.

Thanks

Maybe we can eventually make language a complete impediment to
