Configuration

Summary

The tag library configuration file is typically provided by the tag library vendor. In general, users of the tag library will only need to configure the taglib to point to the vendor's configuration.

resin.conf
<web-app> <taglib taglib-uri='/mytag/test' taglib-location='/MyTag.tlb'/> </web-app>

As a shortcut during development, you can pull the taglib definition into the resin.conf:

<web-app>
<taglib taglib-uri='/mytag/test'>
<tag name='bar' tagclass='test.NoTag'/>
<tag name='foo' tagclass='test.MyTag' teiclass='test.MyTagInfo'/>
</web-app>

Resin 1.2.2 will detect any META-INF/*.tld and WEB-INF/*.tld automatically, so you don't need to add them individually. (The new behavior is part of the Servlet 2.3 spec.)
