Why you should care

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text pl=”0″ pr=”0″ pt=”0″ pb=”0″]A tag library defines a collection of custom actions. The tags can be used directly by developers in manually coding a JSP page, or automatically by Java development tools. A tag library must be portable between different JSP container implementations.
If the tag library is not utilized, the custom actions are not defined resulting in specification issues

Business Impacts

Having more tag libraries than necessary is risky for the code. It is best to only have tag libraries that are used so that the code can be more productive.
