Thanks for all your input :-)

Ok, thanks for this, it works very nice:
Now i can debug my servlet, change the servlet code and it is auto
compiled by eclipse
and auto loaded by tomcat: The change is immediately available - great!
The smart thing is i could make symbolic links to my different svn
projects and so
access the servlets without changing my directory structure (thanks to
Unix).

This i can't figure out:
If i load the qooxdoo project in firefox like (directly from harddisk):
file:///home/watchee/watcheeweb/src/main/track.jsp
then the javascript inside can't access the servlet with
http://localhost:8080/watchee/ajax
it gets a
"Permission denied to call method XMLHttpRequest.open"
-> The browser does not allow to change from file:// to http://.
If i load the qooxdoo project like:
http://localhost:8080/watchee/track.jsp
everything runs fine (as the javascript also uses http://localhost:8080...).
But now i need to redeploy the qooxdoo war on
each change on Application.js :-(
Here i need some smarter approach ...

I do a 'make build' which creates the compressed track.js
and throw it into tomcats webapp - no this is loaded fast.
And now i make a clever symbolic link from webapps/Application.js to my
svn directory where i edit the file - but:
It didn't work here as the comressed track.js already contains the
Application.js
code and i end up having it twice - which irritates qooxdoo.
We would nee to have a
"make semibuild"
which includes everything but not the Application.js which i edit all
the time.
Thanks
