By default, the .java files for all JavaServer Pages (JSP) files are generated with the package statement, package com.ibm._jsp;. The JSP engine's class loader knows how to load JSP classes when they are all in the same package. The .java files are located in the filesystem within a directory structure mirroring the JSP source directory structure. If the JSP engine configuration parameter useFullPackageNames is set to true, the .java files are generated with the package statement
Package _ibmjsp.<directory structure in which the jsp is located>;The usage of full package names enables the configuration of a JSP as a servlet in the web.xml file. See JSP class loading for more information. The table below gives examples of packages and directory structures for generated .java and
.class files.
| Java package | Location of .java or .class files in file system | |||
| JSP file | default | useFullPackageNames=true | default | useFullPackageNames=true |
| /myJsp.jsp | com.ibm._jsp | _ibmjsp | / | /_ibmjsp |
| /jspFiles/jspOne.jsp | com.ibm._jsp | _ibmjsp.jspFiles | /jspFiles | /_ibmjsp/jspFiles |
| /dir with spaces/jspTwo.jsp | com.ibm._jsp | _ibmjsp.dir_20_with_20_spaces | /dir with spaces | /_ibmjsp/dir_20_with_20_spaces |
