No. It needs to be at least servlet container like Tomcat (which, incidentally, contains all jar files that one would need to develop servlets).
Thanks for replying..I think i need a packing...like k2se is requires for threading collections etc...which package i need to install servlets and JSP and how to configure like setting classpath etc

You need Tomcat, nothing else. It contains the servlet-api.jar file which you need in your classpath to compile servlets. The Tomcat site contains ample documentation on how to get started, and it comes with servlet and JSP examples.
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
