You can create a xml file and put it under
${TOMCAT_HOME}/conf/Catalina/localhost. In this file you point to your
exclipse target directory (my target directory is the src directory, so
I don't have to build the war. If I save a file in the eclipse IDE the
tomcat will restart). So the tomcat will start, if you change a
ressource in the classpath and do not restart, if you change only a jsp.
For example:
<Context path="/myapp" docBase="/home/mwolff/struts-it/src/webapp"
reloadable="true">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="strutsit" suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
</Context>

I think, MyEclipse is a good but not a nessacary extension.
