To prevent duplication of same output logic across multiple jsp's of the web app ,include mechanism is used ie.,to promote the re-usability of presentation logic include directive is used

  <%@ include file="abc.jsp" %>

when the above instruction is received by the jsp engine,it retrieves the source code of the abc.jsp and copy's the same inline in the current jsp. After copying translation is performed for the current page

Simply saying it is static instruction to jsp engine ie., whole source code of "abc.jsp" is copied into the current page

2) When to use include action ?

include tag doesn't include the source code of the included page into the current page instead the output generated at run time by the included page is included into the current page response

include tag functionality is similar to that of include mechanism of request dispatcher of servlet programming

include tag is run-time instruction to jsp engine ie., rather copying whole code into current page a method call is made to "abc.jsp" from current page
