reference (bodyContent is its name)of Bodycontent class in doEndTag() method without creating it.can anybody explain me how it is possible?is jsp engine creating instance for us?

Hi Prajakta,
BodyTagSupport class has the member variable defined as follows.

public class javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyTagSupport extends javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.TagSupport implements javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyTag {
protected javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyContent bodyContent;

}

So you can use it without declaring it.

Thanks
