I've used J++ with a few different JSP environments (WebLogic, JRun,
GnuJSP), and it works great.  You just configure the "Launch" tab of the
project properties to startup your servlet engine using jview (so J++ is
responsible for starting/stopping the servlet engine).  you can set
breakpoints and watches in your Java classes, and debug it like a normal
app.

definately beats System.err.println() all over the place.

I guess I should also mention that you'll only really be able to set
breakpoints in the beans used by your JSPs, not the JSPs themselves, since
the generated JSPs aren't in your J++ project.  I suppose you could
configure your JSP engine to generate its classes in a directory that is
in your J++ project, but I've never tried that.
