Bruce, To see where the "-g" comes from, see:
<http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-tomcat/src/share/org/apache/jasper/compiler/SunJavaCompiler.java?rev=1.2.4.1&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup> Since the invocation of the Java compiler is under the control of Jasper, you don't have much control over the arguments it is passed. After giving it a quick try with Tomcat 3.2.4, it appears the conf/web.xml is out of date with respect to the JSP servlet. The correct class name is org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet. The following worked for me: <servlet> <servlet-name> jsp </servlet-name> <servlet-class> org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet </servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>classdebuginfo</param-name> <param-value>true</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup> -2147483646 </load-on-startup> </servlet> ... <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name> jsp </servlet-name> <url-pattern> *.jsp </url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> Cheers, Larry > -----Original Message----- > From: Bruce Dahms [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, November 18, 2002 12:59 PM > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: RE: Debugging JSPs using Tomcat 3.2.3 and NetBeans 3.3.2 > > > Hi Larry: > > Thanks for that tip.
