          String getClassPath()

      Returns:
        the classpath used to compile generated Servlets

    - #### getCompiler

          String getCompiler()

      Compiler to use.

      If `null` (the default), the java compiler from Eclipse JDT project, bundled with Tomcat, will be used. Otherwise, the `javac` task from Apache Ant will be used to call an external java compiler and the value of this option will be passed to it. See Apache Ant documentation for the possible values.

      Returns:
        the compiler name

    - #### getCompilerTargetVM

          String getCompilerTargetVM()

      Returns:
        the compiler target VM, e.g. 1.8.

    - #### getCompilerSourceVM

          String getCompilerSourceVM()

      Returns:
        the compiler source VM, e.g. 1.8.

    - #### getCompilerClassName

          String getCompilerClassName()

      Returns:
        Jasper Java compiler class to use.

    - #### getTldCache

          TldCache getTldCache()

      The cache that maps URIs, resource paths and parsed TLD files for the various tag libraries 'exposed' by the web application. A tag library is 'exposed' either explicitly in web.xml or implicitly via the uri tag in the TLD of a taglib deployed in a jar file (WEB-INF/lib).
      Returns:
        the instance of the TldLocationsCache for the web-application.

    - #### getJavaEncoding

          String getJavaEncoding()

      Returns:
        Java platform encoding to generate the JSP page servlet.

    - #### getFork

          boolean getFork()

      The boolean flag to tell Ant whether to fork JSP page compilations.

      Is used only when Jasper uses an external java compiler (wrapped through a `javac` Apache Ant task).

      Returns:
        `true` to fork a process during compilation

    - #### getJspConfig

          JspConfig getJspConfig()

      Returns:
        JSP configuration information specified in web.xml.

    - #### isXpoweredBy

      Returns:
        a Tag Plugin Manager

    - #### genStringAsCharArray

          boolean genStringAsCharArray()

      Indicates whether text strings are to be generated as char arrays.
      Returns:
        `true` if text strings are to be generated as char arrays, `false` otherwise

    - #### getModificationTestInterval

          int getModificationTestInterval()

      Returns:
        modification test interval.

    - #### getRecompileOnFail

          boolean getRecompileOnFail()

      Returns:
        `true` if re-compile will occur on a failure.

    - #### isCaching

          boolean isCaching()

      Returns:
        `true` is caching is enabled (used for precompilation).

    - #### getCache

          Map<String,TagLibraryInfo> getCache()

      The web-application wide cache for the TagLibraryInfo tag library descriptors, used if `isCaching()` returns `true`.

      Using this cache avoids the cost of repeating the parsing of a tag library descriptor XML file (performed by TagLibraryInfoImpl.parseTLD).

      Returns:
        the Map(String uri, TagLibraryInfo tld) instance.

    - #### getMaxLoadedJsps

          int getMaxLoadedJsps()

      The maximum number of loaded jsps per web-application. If there are more jsps loaded, they will be unloaded. If unset or less than 0, no jsps are unloaded.

    - #### getJspIdleTimeout

          int getJspIdleTimeout()

      Returns:
        the idle time in seconds after which a JSP is unloaded. If unset or less or equal than 0, no jsps are unloaded.

    - #### getStrictQuoteEscaping

          boolean getStrictQuoteEscaping()

      Returns:
        `true` if the quote escaping required by section JSP.1.6 of the JSP specification should be applied to scriplet expression.
