Redeclare even inherited tag attributes in TLD?

[P Chandrasekaran]

Hello.

I am porting a JSP 1.1. app from Weblogic 5.1 to JBoss 4.0.
And I find that the JSP engine throws error complaining
"attribute <such-and-such> invalid according to TLD" for
even attributes defined in the super class of the tag.

Why is it so?
Thanks
Chandra

Even though a tag handler can be derived from another, the TLD declarations do not reflect any inheritance. Every attribute of a tag must be declared in its TLD entry regardless of where the attribute mutator is defined.
