JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology, as specified by an industry consortium led by Sun Microsystems, is a component of the standard Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE). The J2EE component of the Oracle Application Server is known as the Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE (OC4J).
This document provides reference information as well as some conceptual material for JSP tag libraries and utilities included with OC4J in Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2). These libraries generally conform to the JSP specification.
For general information about the OC4J JSP implementation, including the JSP tag library framework, refer to the Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE Support for JavaServer Pages Developer's Guide.
This preface contains the following sections:
This document is intended for Web application developers using servlet and JavaServer Pages technology. It assumes that working Web, servlet, and JSP environments already exist, and that readers are already familiar with the following:
General Web technology
Java
HTML
Java servlets
JavaServer Pages
Configuration of their Web server and servlet environments
Oracle JDBC (for JSP applications accessing Oracle Database)
You can refer to the Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE Support for JavaServer Pages Developer's Guide for background information about standard JavaServer Pages technology, the Oracle JSP implementation, and tag library support.
