Illegal target of jump or branch WHYYYYYYYYY?!?!

[Luis Gois <lu...@netc.pt>]

Hi! This one is driving me to insanity for sure!!! I have a xml to which
I apply a couple of logicsheets. Everything worked fine until I had to
insert an "if ... else ... " test condition. The "if ..." was already
there, and when I've put the "else ..." on my XSP page, I got this error
:

Illegal target of jump or branch at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Native
Method)

I'm aware of the 64k limit per class, so, I've checked the .class
generated and, in fact, it was almost 80kB (with or without the
"else..." ... so, my guess is that the "else" is forcing a jump to
beyond the 64kB limit).

Reading through the mail archives, I couldn't  find any "cure" for my
problem, only some "patches" to it, like xinclude stuff and so on. Could
you share with me some of the techniques you might have used to overcome
this limitation (this is a very annoying limitation for XSP. We just
have to open a .java generated file to see what is making our pages grow
and grow because of XML code).

TIA
Luis Gois

Without at least a simple sketch of what you want to do with your XSP script, 
it's impossible to suggest a workaround. As a general rule, you never need 
to get anywhere near the 64k limit, and hitting it suggests your code needs
some heavy refactoring. 

As a side note, if some developers are following this list, the idea of code 
like what you described:
 <foo:bar /><xsp:logic> else { do_else_stuff() } </xsp:logic> 
gives me the creeps. Its hard to read, and prone to breaking if <foo:bar /> 
changes its internal implementation. 

XSP has the potential to be even harder to maintain than Perl. Some restrictions
 on logicsheets should be imposed, to avoid future problems.
