I recommend Visual Age for Java 3.02.
It has a JSP Execution monitor. In addition when it compiles the pages it
puts them in a project where you can see the generated code, set
breakpoints, and about anything else you want. If there is a compile time
error in your JSP it will show up in the IDE as well as in the debugger and
JSP execution montior. The Professional Edition is available from IBM
Visual Age Developer Domain for around $120 USD.
The downside is the JDK is 1.1.7 and JSP 1.0. Unlike other products you
cannot replace the JDK in Visual Age. The limitation is due to their
incremental compiler which allows you to make changes to running programs.
They also provide a distributed debugger so you can remotely debug an
application running on another machine.
Hope this help -

Subject: JSP-INTEREST: JSP IDE
Anyone out there recommend a genuine IDE for JSP? I don't mean like
HomeSite which I already use. I need more than keyword coloring, I
want the edit/compile/run-in-debug loop. While developing beans in
Cafe, J++, or JBuilder all provide symbolic debugging, breakpoints, etc.
The JSP translation to a Java source, the compile and then class loading
seem to make this sort of loop impossible. Has anyone (Oracle 8i?,
IBM Websphere, JRun?) implemented this classic development loop?
At least gimme an environment where the line number reported by the
Java compile can be easily traced back to the JSP source line! Yeah, yeah,
I know: keep the Java in the JSP simple and you don't have this problem.
Right!
Thanks in advance,
Bob Allen
