Adding a Tag Library From the Filesystem

See Also

A tag library within a web module resides in the WEB-INF/lib directory.

To add a tag library from the filesystem to a web module:

  1. In the Explorer, right-click the WEB-INF node.
  2. From the contextual menu, choose Add JSP Tag Library and choose Find in Filesystem.
  3. In the JSP Tag Library Browser dialog box, browse to and select a custom tag library.
  4. Click OK.
tip When you add a tag library to a web module using the Add JSP Tag Library item, the web module's deployment descriptor is automatically updated to include an entry for the tag library. This entry maps the tag library to a URI that your JSP pages can use to get the tags.
