Directives
Directives provide global information that is conceptually valid independent of any specific request received by the JSP page or by the standalone task. For example, a directive is used to define a prefix that is required for Info*Engine custom tags.
You can use the following directives on JSP pages and in standalone tasks:
• The page directive defines the general characteristics of a JSP page.
• The taglib directive performs the following actions:
◦ Declares that the page or task uses a tag library.
◦ Uniquely identifies the tag library using a URI.
◦ Associates a tag prefix that distinguishes usage of the actions in the library.
