REPORT #65 Details.

Project: Tomcat
Category: Bug Report
SubCategory: New Bug Report
Class: swbug
State: received
Priority: high
Severity: critical
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: 3.1
   JVM Release: 1.3.0
   Operating System: Windows 2000
   OS Release: ? (latest)
   Platform: Intel

Synopsis: 
If a custom tag has any attributes at all a java.lang.NoSuchMethodError exception is thrown.

Description:
I installed Tomcat 3.1 and tried to execute the "Simple custom tag example".

I got the following error message:

Error: 500

Location: /examples/jsp/simpletag/foo.jsp

No detailed message


In Tomcat's console I had:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError at 

        org.apache.jasper.compiler.TagLibraryInfoImpl.createAttribute(TagLibraryInfoImpl.java:502)
.
.
.


In TagLibraryInfoImpl.java I found these lines (line 502 in this source file is the return instruction below):

    TagAttributeInfo createAttribute(Element elem) {
        String name = null;
        boolean required = false, rtexprvalue = false, reqTime = false;
        String type = null;
.
.
.
        return new TagAttributeInfo(name, required, type, rtexprvalue);
    }


The TagAttributeInfo constructor's signature is actually:

public TagAttributeInfo(java.lang.String name,
                        boolean required,
                        boolean rtexprvalue,
                        java.lang.String type)
