I get a compilation error ‘expected %>”‘ when using strings in runtime arguments to custom tags. Use this TLD and JSP:

—- iku.tld —-

<taglib>
    <tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>
    <jsp-version>1.2</jsp-version>
    <short-name>iku</short-name>
    <uri>/iku</uri>
    <display-name>iku</display-name>   
    <tag>
        <name>conditional</name>
        <tag-class>de.ikuag.sponts.tag.ConditionalTag</tag-class>
        <body-content>JSP</body-content>
        <attribute>
            <name>cond</name>
            <required>true</required>
            <rtexprvalue>true</rtexprvalue>
            <type>boolean</type>
        </attribute>
    </tag>
</taglib>

—- bug.jsp —-

<%@taglib prefix="iku" uri="/WEB-INF/iku.tld"%>
<% String haha = "haha"; %>
<iku:conditional cond="<%= "haha" != null %>">
</iku:conditional>

If you replace the String-constant ‘”haha”‘ by the variable ‘haha’ it works fine. It does also work fine with Jetty, so it looks like a bug in the compiler.

You need to escape your double quotes inside of the expression, then it will work (I tried this locally).

Thank you, this helped.
