public interface JspIdConsumer
This interface indicates to the container that a tag handler wishes to be provided with a compiler generated ID.
The container sets the
jspId
attribute of the tag handler with an identification string, as part of tag property initialization. Each tag in a JSP page has a uniquejspId
, and a given tag in a JSP page always has the samejspId
, even for multiple requests to the page.Tag handler instances that implement
JspIdConsumer
cannot be reused.Even though the
jspId
attribute is similar in concept to thejsp:id
attribute of an XML view (see Section JSP.10.1.13 of the spec), they are not related. Thejsp:id
attribute is available only at translation time, and thejspId
attribute is avalable only at request time.The JSP container must provide a value for
jspId
that conforms to the following rules:- It must start with a letter (as defined by the
Character.isLetter()
method) or underscore ('_'). - Subsequent characters may be letters (as defined by the
Character.isLetter()
method), digits (as defined by theCharacter.isDigit()
method), dashes ('-'), or underscores ('_')
Note that the rules exclude colons ':' in a
jspId
, and that they are the same rules used for a component ID in JavaServer Faces.- Since:
- JSP 2.1
