Description Robert Jackson CLA 2002-05-06 15:08:59 EDT
The problem:
A user creates a Java Custom Tags.  Then they rename the tag and make the 
appropriate changes to the taglib.tld file, rebuild the tag libraries java 
class, and make the needed changes to the jsp files. The user will get the 
following error pointing to where the jsp page calls the tag. 
 
IWAW0525E Unknown tag 
 
I found this in WSAD 4.0.2 and 4.0.3. for Windows 2000.
 
Solution:
To fix this problem the user must follow the following step in the exact order.
   1. Shutdown then reopen the WSAD.
   2. Delete the class file for the class that implements the tags logic.
   3. Update the .tdl file. Even if all you do is change a comment. Save.
   4. Update the class file for the class that implements the tags logic. Save.
   5. Rebuild the project .
 
I seems that there is a complex set of steps for changing the tag 
libraries "short-name" but I have not looked closely into resolving that 
problem at this time. Please let me know if there is another way of resolving 
this issue and/or the steps for resolving the issue of changing the "short-
name".
