using generic collections in a JSP page (tomcat 5.5 OS X 10.4.2)

Hi All,

 I cannot get my JSP page to run in Tomcat 5.5

I'm reasonably confident that i've isolated the problem to use of Generics, a new Java 5 feature, within java code embedded in the JSP page.

Although I have java 1.5 installed I'm assuming that Jasper, which compiles the JSP pages for tomcat is somehow using javac from 1.4 rather than 1.5.

Has anyone else had this problem?

I'm hoping the solution is as simple as making an adjustment to the configuration of Tomcat.


some further details

This works
    
    <%
        LinkedList list = new LinkedList();
        //do something
    %>

This doesn't

    <%
        LinkedList<String> list = new LinkedList<String>();
        //do something
    %>

Requesting the JSP page from Tomcat gives the following error:
