Hi! I plan to build a web application with a CentralEntryServlet. This Servlet invokes some actions which depends on the given PathInfo. The actions are very extensive and return a ready OutputStream which then is printed out to the Client.
I want to use templates which are connected to different actions. The actions aren't provided with the web application. They depend on the needs of a customer. You can think of these actions were like a list of modules which collects/prepare some data and the templates to show these data. One possibility would be to point the Client to a JSP page after processing the actions and then let Tomcat do the rest. But I don't like this possibility. The templates should be thin with no java source inside. I want to reduce and to simplify the template development drastically so I don't want the Web designers to use JSP tags inside these templates. Instead the templates have only a few more TAGs additionaly to HTML. These tags are converted to Java source by the template compiler of my application so that the compiled templated is a JSP. Now I want this JSP be processed to get the HTML output which I can then print out to the client.

I think that this is what JSP itself does already, i.e. return HTML content. So, I am not sure what you are asking. If you don't want to use JSP pages, then don't. I am sure that is not what you wanted to say, so, again, I misunderstood what you are saying. Could you be more specific about what you want? You don' t have to use JSP pages with Tomcat, but then there would be no point in having Tomcat really.
