If you do your development on a Linux or Unix box, you can do b) with "tail -f <logfile>" while Tomcat's running and writing to the file.
As far as I know, there's no way around the questionable file locking semantics implemented in Windows....

If you install Cygwin on a Win32 machine, you can get tail -f to work under Windows as well. In fact, it is part of the default installation I believe. I have done this and it works beautifully.
