      When using Java 8 features in JSP pages with Tomcat, JSP compiler exceptions similar to the following were thrown: `Unable to compile class for JSP`.

      This issue occurred because the ECJ included with Tomcat 7 and 8 did not properly compile Java 8 classes.

      This issue is fixed with the upgrade of ECJ to version 4.4 for both Tomcat 7 and 8, and Java 8 features in JSP pages should now compile successfully.
