Tag Files

[Niteen Patil]

Is there any need to describe the tagfiles in TLD.

[Christophe Verré]

No, the container will implicitly map any Tag Files it founds under the WEB-INF/tags directory (and subdirectories).

Thanks,

If the tagfile is placed in the jar file?

Hi,
Yes you'll need a TLD when the tag files are in a JAR file with the following mapping

<taglib ....>
<tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>
<uri>myABCTags</uri>
<tag-file>
<name>ABC</name>
<path>/META-INF/tags/ABC.tag</path> ==> either /META-INF/tags or any subdirectories thereof
</tag-file>
</taglib>

Hope that helped.

Kind Regards.
Hasnain.
