In this file you point to your exclipse target directory (my target directory is the src directory, so I don't have to build the war. If I save a file in the eclipse IDE the tomcat will restart). So the tomcat will start, if you change a ressource in the classpath and do not restart, if you change only a jsp. For example: <Context path="/myapp" docBase="/home/mwolff/struts-it/src/webapp" reloadable="true"> <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" prefix="strutsit" suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/> </Context> >>3) Is MyEclipse worth it? >> >> >> I think, MyEclipse is a good but not a nessacary extension.
