pre-compilation of JSP

[Swapna Sam]

I need to pre-compile jsp,tomcat provides JSPC compiler to do this ,but I am unable to load jsp .Can anyone specify how to add class file in web.xml.

u can add your servlet in the web.xml as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>testServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>testServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>testServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/testServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

JSP can be put into ur web-application, if u are creating a separate application. Or u can put it into the webapps/examples/jsp folder if u are using the already created application
hope that helps

I had one separate directory for my JSP's and I had taken one JSP file and compiled to java file using jspc tool ..
and compiled java file using javac to get class file
Now I endup with having pre-compiled jsp class file and jsp file
when I hit the page it is not taking the class I had specified in web.xml ,instead it is again compiling jsp file to servlet class and placing in appropriate work directory .
If I delete the JSP file ,page is not displayed
I need to point to pre-compiled class file when user hits on that page ..
I hope now my question is clear ..
