I am using tomcat 5.0.12 and struts 1.1 with tiles and have been successful in precompiling. The tomcat documentation has a pretty good example. The hard part is translating someone else's directory structure into yours to apply all the examples. I posted my solution to my web site at http://www.calandva.com/holmansite/do/blog/blogging
I also use Eclipse for development but due to the number of steps and substitution in the various output xml and properties files still create the final product with ant - invoked in Eclipse or externally. Not sure I explained it well enough and I left off my compile and war targets - let me know if you have questions. Cal -----Original Message----- From: Ruth, Brice [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2003 10:14 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Eclipse + Ant + precompile -> Tomcat I've been doing some googling on having a webapp precompiled when deployed to Tomcat via an Ant task and I'm a bit intimidated with what's involved. Has anyone out there done this? Right now, I have an Ant build setup as an external build in Eclipse that does a variety of things, including building, packing up my WAR, and installing this WAR to Tomcat using the catalina-ant "install" command that uses the management URL and an external context file to install the webapp in a (local) running Tomcat instance. I'd like to follow-up the install with a directive to Tomcat to precompile the JSPs in the web application - does anyone have an Ant task that I could adapt to this purpose that they'd be willing to share?
