jsp file using above tag is

op of above tag is -: doStartTag() this is body doAfterBody()

Above class(MyCTag) extends TagSupport.But in doStartTag() method i return
BodyTag.EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED.
How can i return EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED for doStartTag if i extend TagSupport?
Because we can return BodyTag.EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED if we extends BodyTagSupport and BodyTagSupport implements BodyTag which contains EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED field.

Please Help
Thanks

If you want to evaluate the body and return EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED,
you need, as you pointed out, to extend the class BodyTagSupport or implement the interface BodyTag.

Why would you want to return EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED if you extend TagSupport ? That is not what this interface is for.

And it will not work anyways because what would it invoke ?

Friends,
What is the use of EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED, i read that to have access in body content we use it, can any one explain it how it will be done.
