The JspC compiler when used with the -webapp option, also allows the use of either -webxml or -webinc to generate a complete web.xml file or just the servlet and servlet mappings to be included. I found I couldnt do this using the ant jspc command, but rather used a java task to run the jspc command.
My generated .java classes were then compiled with all my other classes and put in the war.

hi there, i am migrating my projects from php to java and began to set up a development server that ideally does all the dev work once a project is marked release i just call an ant task to deploy the project to one or more (load balanced) production servers.i have written an ant build.xml to compile my webapp and to put everything i need into "mywebapp.war". thats working very fine and i can just deploy that .war to a tomcat server without any problems. now, i have setup another ant task to precompile every jsp file using jasper (ant task "jspc"). thats working perfectly fine and i have loads of index_jsp.java, etc files. now i compile those to .class files and i would like to distribute them inside the .war file so that the tomcat server itself doesnt need to compile anything by himself. _Ideally_ i'd like to exclude _any_ .jsp file in the .war file and just include the compiled jsp.class files. but i wonder ... tomcat somehow doesnt really know what i'm sending him and he doesnt recognize any of the precompiled pages. how do i tell tomcat to use the precompiled pages in the .war instead of compiling them himself? i know i can write this it into my web.xml <servlet> <servlet-name>index_jsp</servlet-name> <servlet-class> my.package.jsp.index_jsp </servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>index_jsp</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/index.jsp</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> but somehow i dont like it this way, but i would rather use this instead of putting jsp files into the .war file. would be cool if tomcat would do something like this by himself when he finds *_jsp.class in a /WEB-INF/precompiled directory. Anyways maybe tomcat has some support for what i'm trying to find and i just can't find it?
