I'm afraid, I wasn't clear enough explaining the issue. First, let's 
assume, I do not pre-compile my JSPs and deploy the war with the manager 
app.  Upon the first request, Tomcat will go about and compile the JSPs 
to the working directory. As there is no context entry in the 
server.xml, Tomcat will use its default working directory.

Now, I'd like to pre-compile the JSPs including only the compiled JSP 
classes in the war file. This means that Tomcat would have to load the 
JSP classes directly from the war file instead of from its working 
directory. Can this be done?

I hope the issue is clear now.

Thanks for any insight.

Reinhard
