There are several approaches. The first (and best IMHO) is to use log4j which can be configured to send to the console, a log, or just about anywhere else. If you are not using log4j you can still watch the logging in realtime. If you're on a Unix box, tail -f will allow you to watch a log file as you are writing to it. Textpad on windows will allow you to do the same thing. Also, if you are on windows and start tomcat by using "<CATALINA_HOME>\bin\catalina start" the output will go to the DOS window.
