JBoss/Tomcat error

[brudvik]

Hi - I get this strange error when running the sollution on tomcat, while if
I run it on JBoss it works like a charm. Anyone got an idea?

error:org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: 4 in the jsp file: /webshop_handlekurv.jsp
Generated servlet error: Syntax error on token "enum", delete this token
An error occurred at line: 4 in the jsp file: /webshop_handlekurv.jsp
Generated servlet error: Syntax error on token "enum", invalid Expression
An error occurred at line: 4 in the jsp file: /webshop_handlekurv.jsp
Generated servlet error: Syntax error on token "enum", delete this token.

And here is a snippet of that particular code:

if (strUpdate != null) {
 Enumeration enum = request.getParameterNames();
 while (enum.hasMoreElements()) {
 String parameter = (String)enum.nextElement();

 if (parameter.equals("ref") || parameter.equals("getTab") || parameter.equals("getuTab") || ... ) {
 } else {
 :
 :
 .

Thanks in advance!

I figured out the sollution on my own. It appears that the line:

Enumeration enum = request.getParameterNames();

Is valid in JBoss while in Tomcat the particular word "enum" will throw
an exception since it appears that they have reserved that word for their
own usage (or something like it). Could be others that would have faced
that same problem, or will face that same problem sometime.

Cheers!

Are you using Java 5.0? If you do, the word "enum" is reserved for the language itself, not for a specific AS.
