Using the precompiled jsps with tomcat 4.0.x

[Dmitri Lysenko <ld...@nuix.com.au>]

Hi,

I'm using the tomcat 4.0.3 and I'm looking for the way to avoid the 
jsp page compilation in runtime. I was about to use the supplied jspc 
compiler that's included in the distribution. However I shortly found out 
that it generates the classnames that are different from those generated by 
the runtime jsp compiler. I resolved this problem by subclassing the JspC 
class and delegating the jsp compilation to the JspCompiler class instead of 
the CommandLineCompiler. As a result I have the java files with the proper 
names. However I don't see the good way to avoid runtime compilation. Even 
having the precompiled classes in the webapp's war file the Jasper doesn't 
use it. It looks the jsp page from the war and tries to find corresponding 
class in the _work_ directory that's empty initially. Therefore it involves 
the compilation of the source JSP. Is there any way to avoid this compilation 
without populating the tomcat's _work_ directory with the precompiled 
classes?! What's the right approach to use the JSP precompilation?

I appreciate any help in this matter.
