Eclipse's compiler, called JDT.  Quoted from Tomcat's release notes:

In addition, Tomcat 5.5 uses the Eclipse JDT Java compiler for compiling
JSP pages.  This means you no longer need to have the complete
Java Development Kit (JDK) to run Tomcat, but a Java Runtime Environment
(JRE) is sufficient. The Eclipse JDT Java compiler is bundled with the binary Tomcat distributions. ......

    Still no answer?  Are Axis's developers reading this mailing-list?

Hello everybody,

I don't know if this post would be considered off-topic; I've posted it to Tomcat several days ago but without any answer.

I'm trying to use Web service in Tomcat, ie with Axis. I've read and followed the install guide and user guide:
http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/install.html
http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/user-guide.html

  Everything's OK, except one thing:
Axis needs tools.jar to compile JWS on the fly. For the moment, I've got the tools.jar from a JDK 1.5 and put it in the library folder to make Axis compile. So, anyone knows if it's possible to make Axis use Tomcat's compiler (ie the one used in Eclipse, if I'm not mistaken) and how?

By the way, the docs for Axis are too old; they're still using Tomcat 4 as reference! Furthermore, the docs just say Axis needs Java2, but no clear mention if JRE is enough. I mean, Tomcat only needs JRE whereas tools.jar could only be found in JDK. So, JRE or JDK?

  TIA
