Sorry, I had a mind glitch there, I meant GNUJSP, since it is the JSP
engine for JServ.


Almost all JSP engines are implemented as a servlet (typically called
pagecompile), which takes a JSP file, creates a .java file and compiles to
bytecode. The only difference we'd be making is to use NetRexxC rather
than javac, and generating/creating an NRX rather than java file, right?

yep!

But, undoubtly, NRSP should be developed as servlet. Running this way, it
supports ALL servers (99% the web) which have a servlet-interface (which
includes JServ with apache, though). It's a common standard and the
interface is rather easy to implement (I wrote half a dozen servlets by
myself already, a local search engine is IMHO the best one...). So the
other
question is, how would we extract that NetRexx-Code out of the pages and
compile it in a fast and cacheable manner? I think we should have an eye
on
the sources of GNU jsp before (implements the jdsk too...) to get an
idea...

yep. That was my idea too. So, who's first? We have to analyse the
JSP-Engine first to get a mind where to apply patches or s.th. like that.
And what about the 'special' features of jsp? Think I have to take a closer
look at the specs first...
Possibly we could build it as a patch and/or class-swap; just to be able to
keep up with new versions of the jsp code...

I think I'll take a close look on it on weekend. You too :-)) ?
