It all depends on what OS and what editor you use. Under Unix using
symbolic links could be a solution.
I am not familiar with rsync, but you could use a tool like
that to keep
two folders in sync. It should be possible to setup a process that is
watching your working folder and every time a file changes to copy it
over to the deployed web app folder.
I'm running Windows, so no synlinks.
There are sym links under Windows, quite obscure though. Have a look at
Junction:

I'm using Eclipse, which is capable of copying files to a given folder, but
cannot do that across Eclipse projects, and that's what I need to do.
Finally, I'm using tomcat 5.5.
I'm not familiar with IDEA, but I'd rather avoid having to actually do
something
such as pressing a key. I guess I'm looking for a solution that ideally
requires as little
external tool as possible...
One key press per changed file is not a big deal and it gives you
control on what/when you deploy.
Have you looked into rsync and the like? See Unison:

Also, check the recent "File synchronization software" thread(s) on the
VanJUG mailing list:
http://lists.openroad.ca/pipermail/vanjug/2005-June/thread.html
Thanks for the info anyway,
Laurent.

I had a similar problem a while back (Windows/IDEA) and I
ended up using
a plugin that will copy the JSP file to the right location
when hitting
a special key. I found this plugin to be very effective.
Thanks,
Laurent.
