Size of JSP file

what is maximum size of jsp file that we can use in our application ?

It would depend on the JSP compiler and the JSP.

We've had people report that one container fails due to too many lines of code ending up in a single try/catch block in the generated servlet while other containers run the same JSP without a problem.

Personally, I would be more concerned with the amount of code that can be easily maintained in a single JSP. This number, for me, would be much lower than the upper limit for any container out there.

Actually this was the interview question.And they said this is not answer.

Thanks

I don't think the question is well-posed as it is. I can think of several definitions of "maximum JSP file size"; without knowing which one is meant various answers are possible.

There was some discussion on this recently: http://www.coderanch.com/t/414274/JSP/java/When-executing-JSP-Code-too
