Im currently using Tomcat as my server. I use the jspc command that comes with tomcat. If your using another server it probably has an equivilent command. If not write back and ill give details on how to run it without tomcat.
as for the xml... it gets generated by the jspc command it self. The only pain in the ass about it is you have to take the entries it makes and merge them into your existing web.xml. There is an extension ant task to do this.. or you can just do it manaually. As nasty as all this sounds its actually pretty easy after you have done it once... and it works... no source.. ( not even jsp ) needs to be sent to the client!

So what generates your xml data? XDoclet? If so, where do you put your XDoclet information? -= J > -----Original Message----- > From: Jamie M.
